Question

What is the solution to the equation?

√2x+10−6=2


*Picture of the Problem Below*

Answer 1

x = 27

Explanation:

Given

`√(2x+10)` - 6 = 2 ( add 6 to both sides )

`√(2x+10)` = 8 ( square both sides )

2x + 10 = 8² = 64 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

2x = 54 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 27
