\n" ); document.write( "\"%28sqrt%28x%2B4%29%29%5E2=%283%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B4=9\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B4-4=9-4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "Check your answers everytime that you do square root problems for extraneous soltuions:
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%285%2B4%29=3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%289%29=3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3=3\" Our solution is fine, x=5
