What is the solution to the equation below?

Answer:
C x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt(x+3) = x-3
Square each side
(sqrt(x+3))^2 = (x-3)^2
x+3 = (x-3)^2
x+3 = (x-3)(x-3)
FOIL
x+3 = x^2 -3x-3x+9
Combine like terms
x+3 = x^2 -6x+9
Subtract x from each side
x-x+3 = x^2 -6x-x +9
3 = x^2 -7x +9
Subtract 3 from each side
3-3 = x^2 -7x +9-3
0 = x^2 -7x+6
Factor
0 = (x-6)(x-1)
Using the zero product property
x-6=0 x-1 =0
x=6 x=1
Since we squared we need to check for extraneous solutions
x=1
sqrt(1+3) = 1-3
sqrt(4) = -2
2=-2
False
Extraneous
x=6
sqrt(6+3) = 6-3
sqrt(9) = 3
3=3
True solutions
Answer: Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to square both sides of the equation:
[tex]\sqrt{x+3}=x-3\\\\(\sqrt{x+3})^2=(x-3)^2[/tex]
We know that:
[tex](a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2[/tex]
Then, applying this, we get:
[tex]x+3=x^2-2(x)(3)+3^2\\\\x+3=x^2-6x+9[/tex]
Now we need to subtract "x" and 3 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]x+3-(x)-(3)=x^2-6x+9-(x)-(3)\\\\0=x^2-6x+9-x-3[/tex]
Adding like terms:
[tex]0=x^2-7x+6[/tex]
Factor the quadratic equation. Find two numbers whose sum be -7 and whose product be 6. These numbers are: -1 and -6. Then:
[tex](x-1)(x-6)=0[/tex]
Then:
[tex]x_1=1\\x_2=6[/tex]
Checking the first solution is correct:
[tex]\sqrt{1+3}=1-3\\ 2=-2 \ (False)[/tex]
Checking the second solution is correct:
[tex]\sqrt{6+3}=6-3\\ 3=3 \ (True)[/tex]
