Question

Solve by taking the square foot of both sides.

3(x+3)2 - - 81 = 0
x=-3-3-3 or – 3+3 / 3
b x = -3- 613 01-3+63
a.
c. x = 3-3301 3+33
d x-3-3-301-3+3.3

Answer 1

x = - 12, x = 6

Explanation:

Given

(x + 3)² - 81 = 0 ( add 81 to both sides )

(x + 3)² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 3 = ±
`√(81)` = ± 9 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = - 3 ± 9

Thus

x = - 3 - 9 = - 12

x = - 3 + 9 = 6
