Question

What is the answer? What does the symbol mean??

Answer 1

Answer:

6 or -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The symbol √ is the square root symbol.

The square root of a number is a number that when you multiply it by itself you get the first number.

For example:

The square root of 9 is 3 since 3 times itself, 3 × 3, is 9.

The square root of 9 is also -3 since (-3) × (-3) is 9.

The question is asking for the positive and negative square roots of 36.

What number multiplied by itself is 36?

The answer is 6 since 6 × 6 = 36 and -6 × -6 = 36

Answer: 6 or -6
