Question

What is the solution to the equation squareroot 4t+5=3

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

√(4t+5) = 3

4t + 5 = 9

4t = 4

t = 1

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This is a bit ambiguous. I'm going to take it to mean

√(4t + 5) = 3

Solution

√(4t + 5) = 3                      Square both sides.

(√(4t + 5) )^2  = 3 ^2         If you square something and a √ is involved, sometimes squaring something will get rid of the√ sign. That's what happens here.

4t + 5 = 9                           Subtract 5 from both sides.

4t + 5 - 5 = 9-5                  Combine

4t = 4                                 Divide by 4

4t/4 = 4/4

t = 1
