Q:

Describe each step taken to solve the equation. Then, check the solution to see if it is valid. If it is not a valid solution, explain why a) √x+6=4b)∛x+6=4.

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Step-by-step explanation:given,a) √x + 6 = 4                                                     to solve the above equation subtract both side with 6     √x + 6 - 6  = 4 - 6                                   √x  = -2                   squaring both side                 (√x)² = (-2)²                                      x = 4            a) ∛x + 6 = 4                                            to solve the above equation subtract both side with 6     ∛x + 6 - 6  = 4 - 6                 ∛x  = -2cubing  both side                 (√x)³ = (-2)³                       x = -8
