Hi, there--

The Problem:
Solve for x.


Solution:


We want to isolate the variable x. Subtract 19 from both sides of the equation.


Multiply both sides of the equation by -1. 


Square both sides of the equation. 


Squaring undoes the square root operation and we have x+1 on the left hand side. On the right, 
19 squared is 361.


Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation.


Check your work by substituting 360 for x in the original equation.





True!

That's it. Please email me if you have questions or comments about the solution. I'm happy to
explain further and I'd appreciate the feedback.
