QuestionWhich equation can be rewritten as x+4=x2x+4=x^{2} ? Assume x>0x>0
x+2=x\sqrt{x}+2=x
x+2=x\sqrt{x+2}=x x+4=x\sqrt{x+4}=x x2+16=x\sqrt{x^{2}+16}=x

Studdy Solution
Analyze the fourth equation: x2+16=x\sqrt{x^2 + 16} = x.
Square both sides to eliminate the square root:
x2+16=x2 x^2 + 16 = x^2
Subtract x2 x^2 from both sides:
16=0 16 = 0
This is not possible, so it does not match x+4=x2 x + 4 = x^2 .
The equation that can be rewritten as x+4=x2 x + 4 = x^2 is x+4=x\sqrt{x+4} = x.
