For every real number, x, which is not zero, there exists a real number x' such that x * x' = x' * x = 1, the multiplicative identity.
X is greater than 5. If X were equal to 5, X-5 would be 0 which has no real square root. If X were 4, X-5 would be -1 which has no real square root, and so on.

The set of real numbers contains an additive identity - which is denoted by zero - such that, for all real numbers, x, x + 0 = 0 + x = x.
This can be solved by inspection. You can notice that the square of ANY real number is positive or zero, so "x" can be any real number. ("Greater than" and "less than" don't make much sense for complex numbers.)
