Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Original equation
√x+6-4 = x
Isolate
√x+6 = 4+x
Raise both sides to the second power
(√x+6)2 = (4+x)2
After squaring
x+6 = x2+8x+16
Rearranged equation
x2 + 7x + 10 = 0
This equation has two rational roots:
{x1, x2}={-2, -5}
Original equation, root isolated
√x+6 = 4+x
Plug in -2 for x
√(-2)+6 = 4+(-2)
Simplify
√4 = 2
Solution checks !!
Solution is:
x = -2
Original equation, root isolated
√x+6 = 4+x
Plug in -5 for x
√(-5)+6 = 4+(-5)
Simplify
√1 = -1
Solution does not check
1 ≠ -1
Answer:
x ≥ 4
Step-by-step explanation:
–4(8 – 3x) ≥ 6x – 8
Distribute
-32 +12x ≥ 6x – 8
Subtract 6x from each side
-32 +12x-6x ≥ 6x-6x – 8
-32 +6x ≥ – 8
Add 32 to each side
-32 +32 +6x≥ 32– 8
6x ≥ 24
Divide by 6
6x/6 ≥ 24/6
x ≥ 4
