In order to solve for x:
\n" ); document.write( "1. we need to raise both sides of the equation to the 2nd power.
\n" ); document.write( "2. make the equation equal to zero.
\n" ); document.write( "3. factor the equation.
\n" ); document.write( "4. determine value/s of x.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%28x%2B6%29=x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28sqrt%28x%2B6%29%29%5E2=x%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B6=x%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2-x-6=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x-3%29%28x%2B2%29=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Solutions: x = {3,-2} \n" ); document.write( "
