The answer
the full the question is as follow:
<span>Which of the following is an extraneous solution of (45 - 3x)^1/2 =x -9
for solving such an equation, this is the method:
finding the squared value of each member of the equation
</span>[(45 - 3x)^1/2 ]² = (x -9)² (E)
<span>
extend each value of the member
</span>[(45 - 3x)^1/2 ]² = 45 - 3x, because (sqrt a )² = a
the condition is 45 - 3x≥0 ( because of the square root)
it means - 3x≥ -45 and x ≤ 15
(x -9)² = x²-18x + 81
<span>
so </span>45 - 3x = x²-18x + 81, this is equivalent to x² - 15x +36 =0
<span>
this equation should solve for x, for finding the help
Delta = 15² - 4*36 = 81, so x = - (-15) - sqrt (81) / 2 *1=15-9 /2= 3
and </span>x = - (-15) +sqrt (81) / 2 *1= 15 +9/2= 24/2=12
<span>
for x= 12, the equation given above ( equation E) has no solution, because
we can find 3=9
so </span><span>an extraneous solution is x = 12</span><span>

Answer:
I'm pretty sure it's 1 cup of water
You need 2 cups of pancake mix more than water so if you have 3 cups of pancake mix then you'd need 1 cup of water.
6 cups of mix = 4 cups of water
the cups of the mix is are 2 more cups than the water
3 cups of mix = 1 cup of water
I hope that helps and good luck! :)
Answer:
There were 250 hamburgers sold on Saturday.
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 555 hamburgers
and cheeseburgers on Saturday
→ Assume that the shop sold x hamburgers
∵ The shop sold x hamburgers
∵ There were 55 more cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers
→ That means the number of cheeseburgers is greater than the
number of hamburger by 55
∴ The shop sold x + 55 cheeseburgers
∵ The shop sold 555 burgers
→ Add the two types of burgers and equate the sum by 555
∴ x + x + 55 = 555
∴ 2x + 55 = 555
→ Subtract 55 from both sides
∴ 2x + 55 - 55 = 555 - 55
∴ 2x = 500
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∵ 
= 
∴ x = 250
∵ x represents the number of hamburgers
∴ There were 250 hamburgers sold on Saturday.
