Abstract: We prove that an element $g$ of prime order $>3$ belongs to the solvable radical $R(G)$ of a finite (or, more generally, a linear) group if and only if for every $xinG$ the subgroup generated by $g,xg{x}^{-1}$ is solvable. This theorem implies that a finite (or a linear) group $G$ is solvable if and only if in each conjugacy class of $G$ every two elements generate a solvable subgroup.
