Question

X+3-2=9
Solve
Steps and answer please

Answer 1

x = 118

Explanation:

Given

`√(x+3)` - 2 = 9 ( add 2 to both sides )

`√(x+3)` = 11 ( square both sides )

(
`√(x+3)`)² = 11², that is

x + 3 = 121 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = 118

As a check

Substitute x = 118 into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then it is the solution.

`√(118+3)` - 2

=
`√(121)` - 2 = 11 - 2 = 9 = right side, thus

x = 118 is the solution

Answer 2

8

Explanation:

Since 3-2=1 you subtract that from 9 and get 8
