Q. Solve for x. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.Round to two decimal places.(x+3)2−3=0lesser x=greater x=
Write and simplify the equation: Write down the given equation and simplify it if possible.The given equation is (x+3)2−3=0. We need to solve for x.
Isolate the squared term: Add 3 to both sides of the equation to isolate the squared term.(x+3)2−3+3=0+3(x+3)2=3
Take the square root: Take the square root of both sides of the equation to solve for x+3.(x+3)2=±3x+3=±3
Solve for x: Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation to solve for x.x=±3−3
Calculate numerical values of x: Calculate the numerical values of x, rounding to two decimal places.x=3−3≈1.73−3≈−1.27 (lesser value)x=−3−3≈−1.73−3≈−4.73 (greater value)
