Is the first step in solving /x- 1 = 8 different from the first step of solving /x (- 1) = 8? Explain -Yes, in the first equation, start by subtracting 8 from both sides to set the equation equal to zero, but in the
second equation, start by adding 1 to both sides to isolate the radical.
Yes, in the first equation, start by squaring both sides to eliminate the radical, but in the second equation, start by
adding 1 to both sides to isolate the radical.
No, to solve either equation, square both sides to eliminate all radicals.
