Let's take it one part at a time. YOu were given the following equation:
sqrt%28x+%2B+3%29+=+81
---
1)What is the value of x+3?
We square both sides to get
x + 3 = 81^2
or
x + 3 = 6561
---
2)What is the value of x?
subtract 3 from both sides to get
x = 6558
---
3)What is the value of 3*sqrt x+3?
we already know, sqrt(x+3) = 81, so,
3*sqrt(x+3) = 3*81 = 243.
