Question

What are the solutions to the equation
`√(5x+1) =x+1` ?

List your answers in numerical order.

The solutions are x = ___ and ___

Answer 1

x= 0 and x= 3

The solutions can be found by seeing which points on the graph are intersected by both lines. In this case, the coordinates are (0,1) and (3,4) so the x-values are 0 and 3.

Hope this helps!
