Theo started to solve the quadratic equation (x 2)2 – 9 = –5. he added 9 to both sides and the resulting equation was (x 2)2 = 4. next, he took the square root of each side. which was the resulting equation of that step? x 2 = ±4 x 2 = ±2 x 2 = ±8 x 2 = ±16

Respuesta :

The resulting equation of that step is the square root of  (x + 2)²  is  (x + 2).

What is the square root function?

A square root function is defined as a one-to-one function that takes a positive number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number.

From there, it was pretty easy for Theo to find the solutions

to the original equation.

If  (x + 2) = +2 , then  x = 0 .

If  (x + 2) = -2 , then  x = -4

Hence, the resulting equation of that step is the square root of  (x + 2)²  is  (x + 2).
