Assume the problem is:
3sqrt%28x-9%29%2B+24+=+30
:
Subtract 24 from both sides
3sqrt%28x-9%29+=+30+-+24
3sqrt%28x-9%29+=+6
:
divide both sides by 3
sqrt%28x-9%29+=+2
:
square both sides
x - 9 = 4
x = 4 + 9
x = 13
:
:
Check solution in the original
3sqrt%2813-9%29%2B+24+=+30
3sqrt%284%29%2B+24+=+30
3(2) + 24 = 30
