Question

solve √x+4=10

Answer 1

First, subtract 4 from both sides. What do you get?

Answer 2

You need to get the unknown to one side of the equation. Thus Subtract 4 form both sides.
Then square both sides to get your answer.

Answer 3

I got 6 if I did it right

Answer 4

Is the square root over just x or is it over x+4?

Answer 5

it's over the x + 4

Answer 6

Okay, then you need to square both sides \[\sqrt(x+4)^2 = 10^2\]

Answer 7

That eliminates the square root on the left, and what are you left with?

Answer 8

So am I left with the 10^2?

Answer 9

On the right side you have 10^2, which is 10x10 and I'm pretty sure you know what that is :) Squaring both sides eliminated the square root, so you're left with x+4=100

Answer 10

Does that make sense?

Answer 11

√x+4=10
√x+4-4=10-4
√x=6
(√x)^2=6^2
x=36

Answer 12

@boyb39 She said the square root is over x+4. So it's sqrt(x+4)=10. You have to eliminate the square root first.

Answer 13

ok i did not see that sorry @girlnotonfire

Answer 14

No worries, I was just letting you know :)

Answer 15

fixed
\[\sqrt{(x+4)}=10\]
\[\sqrt{(x+4)} ^2=10^2\]
\[x+4=100\]
\[x=100-4\]
x=96
