2.9.3 Solving an Equation with Two Radicals

Question 1

radical equation

Answer 1

• Solving a radical equation generally means that we try to isolate the radical and square the equation so that the radical
  disappears.
  • When an equation has two radicals, you will have to do the isolating and squaring process twice in order to eliminate the
  radicals.
  • Once you have solved your non-radicalized equation, be sure to check your answers to see if both, one, or neither is a true
  solution for the original radical equation.
