[tex]Y= x^2 -5[/tex]

We need to solve for x, we need to get x alone

[tex]Y= x^2 -5[/tex]

Lets start by removing -5

Add 5 on both sides

[tex]y + 5= x^2 -5 + 5[/tex]

[tex]y + 5= x^2[/tex]

Now to isolate x , we need to remove the square from x

To remove square , take square root on both sides

[tex]+-\sqrt{y+5} = \sqrt{x^2}[/tex]

square and square root will get cancelled

[tex]+-\sqrt{y+5} = x[/tex]

So [tex]x = +\sqrt{y+5}[/tex] and  [tex]x = -\sqrt{y+5}[/tex]
