Answer:

sqrt of (m-7) = n+3

m = (n+3)^2 + 7 or m= n^2 + 6n + 16

sqrt of (m)-7 = n+3

m = (n+10)^2 or m =n^2 + 20n + 100

Explanation:

(2) move the constants to the other side, and square

or (1) square and move constants

then you can solve for m

Answer:


n^2+6n+16

Explanation:

I'm going to assume you meant
√(m-7) = n+3, not
√(m) - 7 = n+3.


(√(m-7)) ^2 = (n+3)^2\\\\(√(m-7)^2) = (n+3)^2\\\\(m-7)^{(2)/(2) } = (n+3)^2\\\\m - 7 = (n+3)^2\\\\m - 7 = n^2 + 2n\cdot3 + 3^2\\\\m - 7 = n^2 + 6n + 9\\\\m - 7 + 7 = n^2 + 6n + 9 + 7\\\\m = n^2 + 6n + 16

Hope this helped!
