Solve for j. 196 = j 2 Video hint (1 point) Responses 14 14 -14 -14 98 98 -98

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 196 = j^2 \), we need to isolate \( j \).

1. Take the square root of both sides: \[ j = \pm\sqrt{196} \]

2. Calculate the square root: \[ \sqrt{196} = 14 \]

3. Therefore, the solutions are: \[ j = 14 \quad \text{or} \quad j = -14 \]

So, the possible responses for \( j \) are \( 14 \) and \( -14 \).
