Squareroot(y-1) + 3 = y

Mathematics

Note:xy means x times y and x(y) means the same thing

so
first we get rid of square root then
make the equation equal to zero becaues if
xy=0 then x or/and y=0



squareroot(y-1)+3=y

isolate the squareroot
subtrac 3 from boht sides

squareroot(y-1)=y-3

square both sides (since they are equal, you should be able to square both sides and still make it true)

(squareroot(y-1))^2=(y-3)^2
(y-1)=(y-3)(y-3)
y-1=y^2-6y+9
subtrac y from both sides
-1=y^2-7y+9
add 1 to both sides
0=y^2-7y+10
find what two number multiply to make 10 and add to get -7
the answer is -2 and -5

0=(y-5)(y-2)
therfore
y-5=0
and/or
y-2=0

therefor
y=5 or/and 2 might work
let's try out 2
square root(2-1)+3=2
square root(1)+3=2
1+3=2
false
so 2 doesn't work



let's try 5
squareroot(5-1)+3=5
squareroot(4)+3=5
2+3=5
5=5
true

y=5

X + x+2 + x+4 + x+6 +x+8 + x+10 + x+12 + x+14 + x+16 + x+18 = 1190
Now simplify
10x + 90 = 1190
10x = 1100
x = 110
Now plug in 110 for x
