Answer

The solutions are $x=11$ or $x=-11$. We used square root method for solving the equation because the equation is in the form $x^{2}=d$.

Work Step by Step

$x^{2}-121=0$ Adding $121$ to each side, we get $x^{2}=121$ Taking the square root of each side, we obtain $x=\pm \sqrt {121}$ Or $x=\pm 11$ The solutions are $x=11$ or $x=-11$. We used square root method for solving the equation because the equation is in the form $x^{2}=d$.
