sqrt(3x+1)=4 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the equation
$$\sqrt{3 x + 1} = 4$$
Because equation degree is equal to = 1/2 - does not contain even numbers in the numerator, then
the equation has single real root.
We raise the equation sides to 2-th degree:
We get:
$$\left(\sqrt{3 x + 1}\right)^{2} = 4^{2}$$
or
$$3 x + 1 = 16$$
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$3 x = 15$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 3
x = 15 / (3)
We get the answer: x = 5
The final answer:
$$x_{1} = 5$$
