Answer:
x = 142
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following expression for which we are to find the solution:
[tex] \sqrt { x + 2 } - 1 5 = - 3 [/tex]
Rearranging the equation to get:
[tex] \ sqrt { x + 2 } = - 3 + 1 5 [/tex]
Taking square root on both sides of the equation to get:
[tex](\sqrt{x+2} )^2=(12)^2[/tex]
[tex]x+2=144[/tex]
x = 142
[tex]\displaystyle\\\sqrt{x+2}-15=-3\\\\\sqrt{x+2}=-3+15\\\\\sqrt{x+2}=12~~\Big|~^2\\\\x+2=144\\\\x=144-2\\\\\boxed{x=142}[/tex]
