Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

This is a bit ambiguous. I'm going to take it to mean

√(4t + 5) = 3

Solution

√(4t + 5) = 3 Square both sides.

(√(4t + 5) )^2 = 3 ^2 If you square something and a √ is involved, sometimes squaring something will get rid of the√ sign. That's what happens here.

4t + 5 = 9 Subtract 5 from both sides.

4t + 5 - 5 = 9-5 Combine

4t = 4 Divide by 4

4t/4 = 4/4

t = 1
