Answer 7

I think I have an idea on what the answer is but it'll suck if they don't give you options haha. Anyways...
\[\sqrt{x+6} + 2 = 6\]
Subtract 2 from both sides.
\[\sqrt{x+6} = 4\]
To get rid of the square root, you square it to cancel it out. So, you square it by both sides.
\[\sqrt{x+6}^{2} = 4^{2}\]
\[x+6 = 16\]
The rest should be easy... you solve for x...
