Question 335972
{{{sqrt(y+3)-1=6}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{sqrt(y+3)=6+1}}} Add 1 to both sides.



{{{sqrt(y+3)=7}}} Combine like terms.



{{{(sqrt(y+3))^2=7^2}}} Square both sides



{{{y+3=7^2}}} Square {{{sqrt(y+3)}}} to get {{{y+3}}}



{{{y+3=49}}} Square 7 to get 49.



{{{y=49-3}}} Subtract {{{3}}} from both sides.



{{{y=46}}} Combine like terms on the right side.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{y=46}}}
