Solving Algebraic Equations With Roots and Exponents

  • Now that we can simplify expressions with roots and exponents, we can pretty easily solve equations that contain them, too. We still are just undoing operations that the variable is participating in, we just have to take square roots instead of adding and subtracting. Give it a try, you'll do great!

    The 3/2 to 2/3 really confuses me but I just take it in my head that if the *exponent is a fraction* and you want to cancel it by putting it on another side, you need to *inverse the fraction-exponent* on the other side.

    instead of always adding and subtracting on both sides, why don't you just move a term to the oder side, changing his sign? when you had 9x-9=x+1, just move the 9 on the righ and the x on the left, so you get 9x-x=1+9, then 8x=10. you do the same thing, just with less steps

      If x³-9=-17, then x³-9+9=-17+9, which is x³=-8. 3√ of x³ is x, 3√ of -8 is -2
      on the 4th question, we can negate the square root by squaring both sides, which leaves us x³+9=36, x³+9-9=36-9, x³=27, x=3

      First cube everything to get ride of the cube root. This leaves us with x^2 + 15 = 64.
      Subtract 15 from both sides leaving x^2 = 49. Take the square root of both sides and you get x = 7, -7.
