hmmmmm
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
Square root both sides
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
And then subtract 3
OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
what do you mean by both sides
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
It's because you have to get rid of the square so what you do to one side you do to the other

To get rid of the square, square root it
OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
then what will it be
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
square root of x=3-4y
OpenStudy (pokieokie):

Then subtract 3 from both sides so it will be square root of x -3=-4y
OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
why subtract 3
OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
woudnt you add 4 or someting
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
No you can't because you have to divide by 4
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
4 is attached to the y so to separate them you have to divide

OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
so what do i subtract 3 by...the x... and 3?
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
Yes and remember it is square root of x
OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
then what
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
\[\sqrt{x}-3=-4y\]
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
Then you divide each side by -4

OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
then what will i get
OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
dont we have to get rid of the x
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
Is this multiple choice?
OpenStudy (cupcakehippo):
no
OpenStudy (openstudier013087):
This can go both ways either they want you to solve for y and just leave the x alone or they want you to solve for the y like we just did and replace x with (3-4y)^2
