Question

help me please go to my page for equation.

Answer 1

\[\sqrt{3x-11}=x-3\]

Answer 2

What do you think the first step is? Hint: we need to get rid of that nasty radical.

Answer 3

square root both sides by 2?

Answer 4

You're onto something (:

Keep on going.

Answer 5

\[\sqrt{3x-11}=x-3\]

Squaring both sides

\[(\sqrt{3x-11})^2=(x-3)^2\]

\[3x-11=x^2-6x+9\]

\[x^2-6x-3x+9+11=0\]

\[x^2-9x+20=0\]

Answer 6

Factor the problem
(x + 5)(x + 4) = 0
Make each equal to 0 since if either is 0 then the product is 0

x + 5 = 0
subtract 5 from each side of the equation
x = -5

x + 4 = 0
subtract 4 from each side of the equation
x = -4

Answer 7

thank you soooo much nurali :) and everyone else for helping :)

Answer 8

what about this one. one second!
\[5\sqrt{\sqrt{x+7}}=25\]
