BLOOP NOT YET, DONT HELP

Answer 6

whaa

Answer 7

@kdog55 TRY

Answer 8

Your not trying

Answer 9

@LexiGirl777 can u help

Answer 10

NO ONE ANSWER

Answer 11

DONT HELP

Answer 12

i am going to answer!

Answer 13

It's logic. Add two to both sides.
sqrt(x+3) -2 = 2
sqrt(x+3) = 4

Now, what's the only number that, when taken the square root of, gives you 4?

Answer 14

DONT ANSWER

Answer 15

lol @WWWHHHAAATTT?

Answer 16

1+ x=2

Answer 17

?????????I'm so confused on what's going on?????????

Answer 18

He just wants the answer

Answer 19

ok and you don't want us to answer it???

Answer 20

Answer 27

Because ive been in 3 questions hes asked but ever time i tryed to tell him to try firsst he said he did but he wouldent show me

Answer 28

its a girl

Answer 29

Hush I'm helping him
@kdog55 3-2= what

Answer 30

Rainbow Dont

Answer 31

@Rainbow_dashie 1

Answer 32

No, not when it is squared, but when it is taken the square root of.

Answer 33

@bloopman i dont understand

Answer 34

2^2 = 4, but sqrt(?) = 4

Answer 35

@kdog55 Try

Answer 36

Okay so x+1+2

Answer 37

@Maria195

Answer 38

@bloopman 16

Answer 39

@WWWHHHAAATTT? shutup

Answer 40

User Disrespect is agianst CoC

Answer 41

K bye I'm not even helping

Answer 42

Correct, good job.

Back to what we had earlier:
sqrt(x + 3) = 4
Since 16 is the only thing that can betaken the square root of to get 4, that means x + 3 = 16.
So, what is x in the equation x + 3 = 16?

Answer 43

Stop helping

Answer 44

@bloopman is it 13?

Answer 45

I'll help as I please babe

Answer 46

@kdog55, yes. That's your answer x = 13

Answer 47

thank you , for all your help, can u help wit another one @bloopman

Answer 48

The strictly algebraic way to do this is like so:
sqrt(x+3) - 2 = 2
sqrt(x+3) = 4
square both sides
x+3 = 16
x = 13

Sure, Ill help with another

Answer 49

\[10+\sqrt{v-4=6}\] @bloopman

Answer 50

If you need help with another

Open a new question

Answer 51

nobody is talking to you @WWWHHHAAATTT? , thank u for your NONSERVICE

Answer 52

@WWWHHHAAATTT? that's not required.

Answer 53

@kdog55, are you sure you typed that equation correctly? (besides the sqrt going over the equal sign, obviously)
have you learned imaginary numbers?

Answer 54

Yes im sure

Answer 55

the sqrt sign is only over the v-4 @bloopman

Answer 56

\[10+\sqrt{v-4}=6\] like this

Answer 57

okay, so
10 +sqrt(v-4) = 6
first things first, subtract 10 from both sides
sqrt(v-4) = -4
now, do u know what we can do from here?

Answer 58

wait huh,

Answer 59

10 - 6?

Answer 60

no, 6 - 10

Answer 61

we're isolating the square root

Answer 62

ok -4

Answer 63

right, so how do we solve v in
sqrt(v-4) = -4

Answer 64

add 4 both sides?

Answer 65

we can't do that, because the 4 in the square root. we have to get it out of the square root
(take your time, don't get frustrated.) i told you implicitly how to do this earlier

Answer 66

square both sides ?

Answer 67

yep. :D
so what do u get for that?

Answer 68

am i squaring -4? or what

Answer 69

you're squaring both sides of the equation

Answer 70

so you will square -4 on the right side

Answer 71

idk how to do that, like what numbers

Answer 72

is it v-4 = -16

Answer 73

you just square sqrt(v-4) on the left = -4
so (sqrt(v-4))^2 = (-4)^2

Answer 74

what happens when you square a square root?

Answer 75

idk i got that and just added -16+4

Answer 76

think about it. thw a

Answer 77

*the square root of 16 is 4. 4^2 = 16. so what does that tell you about (sqrt(x))^2 for any x?

Answer 78

im totally lost,

Answer 79

its a perfect square

Answer 80

alright. so we took the square root of something, then we squared it. now we GOT that original something.
2^2 = 4, sqrt(4) = 2. therefore (sqrt(4))^2 = 4
3^2 = 9, sqrt(9) = 3. therefore sqrt(9))^2 = 9

Answer 81

and so on.
so that means the square of a square root is equal to the number inside the square root.

Answer 82

then whats my answer 16 or 4

Answer 83

in context, this means (sqrt(v-4))^2 = = v-4. get it?

Answer 84

we took the square of the square root of v-4 and got v-4

Answer 85

so v-4 = 16

Answer 86

yep! now just solve for v

Answer 87

16+4?

Answer 88

mhm.

Answer 89

20 not the answer

Answer 90

what are your options?

Answer 91

there are none

Answer 92

could be a no solution

Answer 93

its either the answer or no solution
