Question

How to solve (w-9)squared = 12

Answer 1

`√(12)`+9 or 12.464

Explanation:

We want to isolate the variable so we need to undo the right side.

First, take the square root on both sides: w-9=sqrt(12)

Then we add 9 to both sides: w=sqrt(12) + 9

w=sqrt(12)+9 would be the exact answer but if you want decimal, it would be approximately 12.464
