Question

Please help Solve s=4+sqrt(s+2)

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (2) is correct.

s = 7 satisfy the given equation $s=4+\sqrt{s+2}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the given equation,

$s=4+\sqrt{s+2}$

We have to solve for the value of s so that it satisfy the given equation

We first check for s = 2,

LHS = s = 2

RHS = $4+\sqrt{s+2}$

Put s = 2 , we get ,

$s=4+\sqrt{2+2}=4+\sqrt{4}=4+2=6$

we get LHS = 2 and RHS = 6 which are not equal.

Thus, s = 2 does not satisy the given equation.

We now check for s = 7

LHS = s = 7

RHS = $4+\sqrt{s+2}$

Put s = 7 , we get ,

$s=4+\sqrt{7+2}=4+\sqrt{9}=4+3=7$

we get LHS = 7 and RHS = 7 which are equal.

Thus, s = 7 satisfy the given equation $s=4+\sqrt{s+2}$.

Answer 2

The correct answer is S =7
