Question

TEN POINTS:

Answer 1

Answer:

81/16 = 5 1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(square root of x) -3 = -12

Add 3 to both sides

-4(square root of x) = -12 +3 = -9

Divide both sides by -4

(square root of x) = -9/-4

-/- equals +

(square root of x) = 9/4

Square both sides to cancel the square root

x = (9/4)^2 = 81/16 = 5 1/16
