Answer:
x = 4, x ≠ -1
Step-by-step explanation:
√3x + 4 = x
(√3x + 4)² = x² (Square both sides to get rid of the radical.)
3x + 4 = x²
0 = x² - 3x - 4 (Set everything to 0 by moving everything to one side.)
0 = (x - 4)(x + 1) (Factor.)
x = 4 x = -1
Now we need to check for extraneous solutions:
√3(4) + 4 = 4
√12 + 4 = 4
√16 = 4
4 = 4
√3(-1) + 4 = -1
√-3 +4 = -1
√1 = -1
1 ≠ -1
-1 is an extraneous solution.

GCF:
3 * 4 * 7 = 84
3x = 84
x = 28
4y = 84
y = 21
7z = 84
z = 12

Answer: There is 4 times as much water than broth in the soup recipe.
Step-by-step explanation:
12/3 = 4
3d + 8 = 2d - 7 equals d = -15.
First, subtract 2d from both sides. Your problem should look like: 3d + 8 - 2d = -7.
Second, simplify 3d + 8 - 2d to get d + 8. Your problem should look like: d + 8 = -7.
Third, subtract 8 from both sides. Your problem should look like: d = -7 - 8.
Fourth, simplify -7 - 8 to get -15. Your problem should look like: d = -15, which is your answer.
Hopefully this helps, I'm not exactly sure what you meant by "is equations," but this is how you solve the problem.
