You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1.\"sqrt%28x%29-5=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "sqrt(x) = 12
\n" ); document.write( "Square both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 144
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2.\"sqrt%283x%29%2Fsqrt%282x%2B3%29=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Square both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "3x/(2x+3) = 4
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 8x + 12
\n" ); document.write( "5x = -12
\n" ); document.write( "x = -12/5
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3.\"sqrt%28x%2B5%29=x%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Square both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x+5 = x^2 + 6x + 9
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + 5x + 4 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "(x+4)(x+1) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = -4 is extraneous as it doesn't work in the original equation.
\n" ); document.write( "x = -1 is the only solution
\n" ); document.write( "===============================
