I know I know... she has another question! :arg
But, this is the last one I hope for a bit.
I am stumped with this one. I went through all my old notes and couldn't find a similar problem and I feel like I should know this but don't! :gaah
Anyhoo how do you do this?
Well, Im thinking how to write it...
Its the square root of x squared + 9.... the x squared + 9 is all under the square root.
Thanks =)

Is x+3 the answer?!? LOL!

Well to solve it further it should be x= -3


√x^2 + 9

Thats the answer that I got when I worked it which is what they have also (you have to figure if they are right or wrong and fix the wrong ones) I am going to go with x-3 on this one since that is all I can think to do with it too!

You mean x = -3

right?!? LOL!!!

They have x+3 as the answer but I don't know how to take it any further... Im not the math whiz at all Im doing DH's homework since he is working a double and cant get it in on time. :lol

I'd ask my math whiz hubby who got an A in Calc1 last semester, but he's passed out. :(

Maybe with the type of algebra you're doing, you're not looking to solve for x?!? HAHA!!! Have you solved for x in any of the other problems?!

WOW He aced Calc?? I need to live closer to yall :lol

This is what the directions say...
Decide if the algebraic manipulation is correct or incorrect. If incorrect, either correct it or explain why the expression cannot be simplified.

He sure did!!! He's a pro in Math..wish I could say the same for his spelling, grammar and punctuation...LMAO!!!

He's an awesome math tutor who helped other guys in his class from failing. They had D's in the class prior to DH helping them and finished the class with B's. :)

Ohhhh ok! So maybe "simplified" doesn't mean solving for x?!? :giggle

If this page will show up its #10 on there....
https://campus.ctuonline.edu/courses/MAT150/Assignment_Assets/2_p1ips.pdf
They have worked them all but some are worked incorrectly and we have to figure which ones it is ... I hate doing that because I start questioning myself lol

Victoria is right.

When is it due Cori?!? I'll print it out and have DH take a look at it in the AM before golfing. :)

Its due tomorrow :)
Thanks! :)

Its due tomorrow :)
Thanks! :)

Well I printed out the page and left a note for it on our bathroom counter. It was missing when I woke up. Now I must search the house! I'm thinking Ethan hid it somewhere...LMAO!!!

(x+3)(x+3)
x^2 +3x+3x+9

√x^2+6x+9 = x+3




answer is x+3i


DH said problem 10 is not correct….
