Answer:
10 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to subtract fractions, you have to give them a common denominator.
18 1/2 can be rewritten as 18 6/12, as they are the same thing and 6/12 simplifies to 1/2. We make it 6/12 because we have to subtract it by 8 5/12, and the denominators are both 12.
So now we have 18 6/12 - 8 5/12, which gives us 10 1/12.
√(x + 9) - 4 = 1
√(x + 9) - 4 (+4) = 1 (+4)
√(x + 9)(²) = 5(²)
x + 9(-9) = 25(-9)
x = 16
