√(x + 9) = x - 3

Sides gets power 2


({ √(x + 9) })^(2) = ( {x - 3})^(2)


|x + 9| = {x}^(2) - 6x + 9

_________________________________


x + 9 = {x}^(2) - 6x + 9

Subtract sides 9


x + 9 - 9 = {x}^(2) - 6x + 9 - 9


x = {x}^(2) - 6x

Subtract sides x


x - x = {x}^(2) - 6x - x


{x}^(2) - 7x = 0


x(x - 7) = 0


x = 0

OR


x - 7 = 0


x = 7

_________________________________


x + 9 = - ( {x}^(2) - 6x + 9)


x + 9 = - {x}^(2) + 6x - 9

Subtract sides 9


x + 9 - 9 = - {x}^(2) + 6x - 9 - 9 \\


x = - {x}^(2) + 6x - 18

Subtract sides x


x - x = - {x}^(2) + 6x - 18 - x


- {x}^(2) + 5x - 18 = 0

Multiply sides by -1


{x}^(2) - 5x + 18 = 0


x = No \: \: solution

CHECK the roots :


x = 0


√(0 + 9) ≠0 - 3


√(9) ≠ - 3


3≠ - 3

Thus (( x = 0 )) is unacceptable.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


x = 7


√(7 + 9) = 7 - 3


√(16) = 4


4 = 4

Thus (( x = 7 )) is the only solution for x.
