To solve the equation \( x^2 = 1625 \) by inspection, we take the square root of both sides:
\[ x = \pm \sqrt{1625} \]
Next, we simplify \( \sqrt{1625} \). We can factor 1625 into its prime factors:
\[ 1625 = 25 \times 65 = 25 \times 5 \times 13 = 5^2 \times 5 \times 13 = 5^3 \times 13 \]
Now we can simplify \( \sqrt{1625} \):
\[ \sqrt{1625} = \sqrt{25 \times 65} = \sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{65} = 5 \sqrt{65} \]
Thus, the solutions for \( x \) are:
\[ x = \pm 5\sqrt{65} \]
The two real solutions are \( -5\sqrt{65} \) and \( 5\sqrt{65} \).
To ensure these answers are in simplest fraction form:
- As \( \sqrt{65} \) is not a perfect square, we can leave it as it is in radical form.
Thus, the final solutions, ordered with the lesser number first, are:
\[ -5\sqrt{65}, 5\sqrt{65} \]
