Question

What is the solution to the equation below?A.x = 3B.x = 9C.x = D.x =

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

to solve an equation is to find its solutions, which are the values that fulfill the condition stated by the equation,so we need to isolate x

Step 1

given

`√(x)-9=-6`

a)the addition property of equality states If two expressions are equal to each other, and you add the same value to both sides of the equation, the equation will remain equal.so we can add 9 in both sides

hence

`\begin{gathered} √(x)-9=-6 \\ add\text{ 9 in boht sides} \\ √(x)-9+9=-6+9 \\ √(x)=3 \end{gathered}`

c) finally , power to sides to power 2

so

`\begin{gathered} √(x)=3 \\ (√(x))^2=3^2 \\ x=9 \end{gathered}`

therefore, the answer is

B) x=9
