Please help me with my math preferably with step by step. (4x+4)^1/2-3x=0 I am not good at math at all :( so please dumb it down as much as possible :3
Nah it seems like \[ (4x+4)^{\frac{1}{2}}-3x=0\]
which is \[ \sqrt{4x+4}-3x=0\]
ummm are we solving for x or are we simplifying?
Solving for x. Isolate the square root on the left. Square both sides to get rid of the square root. Then bring everything to the left side. You will have a quadratic equation. Solve for x. You will get two values. Put them back into the equation to make sure they are correct.
@BlackLabel on my work it says solve. the possible answers are A. -4/9, B. 1, C. -4/9,1 or D. no solution
Well Follow what @ranga said. The first step would be to bring the 3x to the other side of the equation
And then we would square both sides
Are you sure you typed the question correctly? None of the answers seem to satisfy the equation. Perhaps you can attach a picture of the question. Is the 4x+4 supposed to be 5x + 4?
