Lesson 11-3 Solving Radical Equations Day 1
Solving radical equations involving unit fractions • Change to radical form • Get the radical(s) by itself • Raise each side to the same power as the root • Solve the remaining equation • Check for extraneous solutions
Solving radicals that are not unit fractions • Write in exponential form • Get exponential(s) on side by itself • Raise each side to the reciprocal (if the numerator or denominator it becomes an absolute value equation) • Solve the remaining equation • Check for extraneous solutions
