What are the solution (s) to the quadratic equation x2 - 25 = 0?

O x = 5 and x = - 5

O x = 25 and x = - 25 A

O x = 125 and x = - 125

O no real solution

Mark this and return

Noy

x = 5 and x = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 25 = 0 ← x² - 25 is a difference of squares and factors as

(x - 5) (x + 5) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
