Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>sqrt (x-4) + 5 = 2</em>
<em>The equation is √(x+4) + 5 = 2</em>
√(x-4) = 2 - 5
√(x-4) = -3
x-4 = (-3)²
x-4 = 9
x = 9 + 4
x = 13
Therefore, the second option x = 13 is correct.

Answer:
<u>x= 4 2/3 </u><em><u>OR</u></em><u> 14/3 </u><em><u>OR</u></em><u> 4.6... –– 4 2/3 and 4.6... are the simplest form.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Your original equation is -192 = -6 (6x - 4):
1. -192 = -6 (6x - 4)
Use distributive property and multiply: -6 x 6x = -36x and -6 x -4 = 24:
2. -192 = -36x + 24
We now move the +24 onto the other side of the equation, -192. Add 24 onto -192 and since we're moving the 24 on the left side of the equation, 24 will removed, so -24 on the right side of the equation:
3. -192 + 24 = -36x + 24 - 24
Divide both sides of the equations by -36 to get "x" by itself:
4. -168 / -36 = -36x / -36
Simplify the fraction of 24/36 by 12:
5. 4 24/36 = 4 2/3 or 14/3 or 4.6... = x
<u>4 2/3, 14/3, 4.6... = x</u>
