Solution Steps

Step 1: Isolate the squared term

Add 90 to both sides of the equation: $(x+5)^2 = 90$

Step 2: Take the square root of both sides

$\sqrt{(x+5)^2} = \pm\sqrt{90}$ $x+5 = \pm\sqrt{90}$ $x+5 = \pm3\sqrt{10}$

Step 3: Solve for x

Subtract 5 from both sides: $x = -5 \pm 3\sqrt{10}$ $x \approx -5 \pm 3(3.16227766)$ $x \approx -5 \pm 9.48683298$

So, the two solutions are: $x \approx -5 + 9.48683298 = 4.49$ $x \approx -5 - 9.48683298 = -14.49$

Final Answer

4.49, -14.49
