$\"v%5E2+%2B+6v+-+46+=+9+\"$ ,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"v%5E2%2B6v+=+55\"$ ,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"v%5E2+%2B+6v+%2B+9+=+64\"$ , after adding $\"%286%2F2%29%5E2\"$ to both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28v%2B3%29%5E2+=+64\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "v+3 = 8 or v+3 = -8 after using the square-root principle
\n" ); document.write( "v = 5 or v = -11, the final solutions. \n" ); document.write( "
