Question

Create a list of steps, in order, that will solve the following equation.

3(x+2)^2=48

Answer 1

Answer: x= -6 or x= 2

Steps: Divide both sides by 3
- Then take square root of both sides
- Separate the equation like this:
x+2= -4
x+2= 4
- Solve for x:
To get -6 subtract -4 and 2
To get 2 subtract 4 and 2
x= -6
x= 2
