Solve
�ã9x+67=x+5
Sure, we'll help. Where do you get stuck?
i have no clue how to solve
you probably have a square root sign in there somewhere, but
do you mean
√(9x+67) = x+5 or
√(9x) + 67 = x+5 ?
hint: square both sides of the equation.
If I asked you to solve
√x = 5
could you solve that?
Sure. You'd just say
x = 5^2 = 25
same thing here
√9x+67 = x+5
9x+67 = (x+5)^2
expand the right side, collect terms, and solve the quadratic.
If that mystifies you, you're in big trouble. See someone in person for help.
To solve the equation �ã9x + 67 = x + 5, we need to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation.
Step 1: Eliminate any parentheses
The given equation does not have any parentheses, so we can move to the next step.
Step 2: Combine like terms
In the equation �ã9x + 67 = x + 5, we have 9x and x on different sides of the equation. To combine them, we can subtract x from both sides.
�ã9x + 67 - x = x + 5 - x
This simplifies to:
�ã9x - x + 67 = 5
Step 3: Simplify
Combining the terms on the left side gives:
8x + 67 = 5
Step 4: Isolate the variable
To isolate the variable x, we need to get rid of the constant term on the left side of the equation. To do this, we subtract 67 from both sides:
8x + 67 - 67 = 5 - 67
This simplifies to:
8x = -62
Step 5: Solve for x
To solve for x, we need to isolate it. Since 8x means 8 multiplied by x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 8 to get x alone:
8x/8 = -62/8
This simplifies to:
x = -7.75
So the solution to the equation �ã9x + 67 = x + 5 is x = -7.75.
