    y = (x+5)^2

    Square Root both sides

    y^(1/2) = x+5

    Minus 5 on both sides

    x=y(^1/2) - 5

    y = (x + 5)²

    √y = x + 5

    x = (√y) - 5

    Answer: x is (√y) - 5 or (square root of y - 5)

    y=(x+5)^2

    Square root both sides

    square root(y) = x + 5

    x = square root(y) - 5
