You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Squaring both sides of the equation we get:
x + 1 = x + 1
When you square square roots, the radicals disappear. This is what happened above.

When you try to combine like terms in the equation x + 1 = x + 1, you will see that each term cancels itself.
Therefore, there is no solution to the original equation given.
This is known as empty set.

sqrt%28x%2B1%29=sqrt%28x%29%2B1 square everything
x%2B1=x%2B1 x=-infinity to infinity
