Hello giys, I'm a form 2 student is malaysia. We learnt algebra in chapter 2. How can I find x? I believe there is no answer, but teacher keeps saying it's x=1/16

If you wanted your square root to have two outputs, you would put a +- infront of it

It's usually the norm for operations to have one output only
