$\"sqrt%283x%29+-+4+=+2\"$ add 4 to both sides of equation
\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%283x%29++=+6\"$ square both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x=36\"$ divide by 3
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=12\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Check the answer
\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%283%2A12%29-4=2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%2836%29-4=2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6-4=2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2=2\"$ correct\r
