Is that exponent a 4?

You can solve it by writing (X-5)^2 * (X-5)^2
Therefore, (x^2+25-10x)(x^2+25-10x)

If that exponent is a 4. And that's still not really a solution.

That looks like a 4 to me, so x∈C

...I mean, isn't x always in C?
cursive stag
...I mean, isn't x *always* in C?
uh, in this case, yea? or wdym
feral oar
uh, in this case, yea? or wdym
...I mean how R is a subset of C.

x belongs to complex numbers; thus, no solution. How I was taught, is it not?

...what? Of course there's a solution. There's a complex solution.

Do you really think he's looking for that though
It's safe to assume he's solving for x∈R
feral oar

Yes?
feral oar
It's safe to assume he's solving for x∈R
How is that safe?

"."
cursive stag
He's probably confused about how to solve it for ∈R, which is why he said "." as it's unsolvable
Idk why you think he's trying to find the complex solution; when the given variable is "x", it's def more than safe to assume not solutions for x belonging to real numbers.

You're reading a hell of a lot into ".".

uh ok? and?

And maybe you should stop assuming things based on literally a single character and just wait for OP to give us some actual information?

I don't why know you're overthinking it that much, if you were to give anyone that equation the first thought is x∈C, no solution. Not finding the complex solution itself.
Idk why you think it's safe to assume the minority of thoughts

There is a solution.

I'm literally not assuming anything. I'm waiting for OP to tell me.

Well let's wait then, I'm pretty certain he's solving for x∈R and not the ∈C solution
even mathematical calculator uses that as the first assumpation

Which is a random assumption you're making for no reason.
cursive stag
idk why u think its "unsafe to assume that"
and you're assuming he is solving for ∈C
common assumptions is far more accurate and should be said than a minority
feral oar
and you're assuming he is solving for ∈C
I SAID I THINK IT'S A POSSIBILITY. YOU'LL NOTE THAT I HAVEN'T ACTUALLY GIVEN THEM ANY INSTRUCTIONS BASED ON THAT.
You don't try to solve a problem before you know what the problem is.
