Answer:

The answer are the options C and D

x equals negative square root of [tex]289[/tex]

x equals positive square root of [tex]289[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]x^{2} =289[/tex]

Take square root both sides

[tex]x=(+/-)\sqrt{289}[/tex]

therefore

the solutions are

[tex]x=+\sqrt{289}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\sqrt{289}[/tex]
