A. x=1
B. x=13
C. x=43
D. x=55

Answer 1

ANSWER

D. x=55

EXPLANATION

The given radical equation is

$\sqrt{x - 6} + 3 = 10$

Add -3 to both sides

$\sqrt{x - 6} = 10 - 3$

$\sqrt{x - 6} =7$

Square both sides.

${ (\sqrt{x - 6})}^{2} = {7}^{2}$

$x - 6 = 49$

Solve for x to get:

$x = 49 + 6 = 55$
