Question

Can someone walk me through solving this? I have no idea how to start and I haven't done algebra in a long time so please be patient w me lol. I'm supposed to be solving "square roots and other radical equations". Thank you!

sqrt(3x+4)=4

Answer 1

First, square each side of the equation. It will then say (3x+4)=16. Now subtract 4 from each side, and finally, divide each side by 3. The solution will then stare up at you: x=4 .
