Solve for x square root of x-x+6=0

$\sqrt{x} - x + 6 = 0$

Move all terms not containing $\sqrt{x}$ to the right side of the equation.

Add $x$ to both sides of the equation.

$\sqrt{x} + 6 = x$

Subtract $6$ from both sides of the equation.

$\sqrt{x} = x - 6$

To remove the radical on the left side of the equation, square both sides of the equation.

${\sqrt{x}}^{2} = {(x - 6)}^{2}$

Simplify each side of the equation.

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt{x}$ as $x^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

${(x^{\frac{1}{2}})}^{2} = {(x - 6)}^{2}$

Simplify the left side.

Simplify ${(x^{\frac{1}{2}})}^{2}$ .

Multiply the exponents in ${(x^{\frac{1}{2}})}^{2}$ .

Apply the power rule and multiply exponents, ${(a^{m})}^{n} = a^{m n}$ .

$x^{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2} = {(x - 6)}^{2}$

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$x^{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2} = {(x - 6)}^{2}$

Rewrite the expression.

$x^{1} = {(x - 6)}^{2}$

Simplify.

$x = {(x - 6)}^{2}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify ${(x - 6)}^{2}$ .

Rewrite ${(x - 6)}^{2}$ as $(x - 6) (x - 6)$ .

$x = (x - 6) (x - 6)$

Expand $(x - 6) (x - 6)$ using the FOIL Method.

Apply the distributive property.

$x = x (x - 6) - 6 (x - 6)$

Apply the distributive property.

$x = x \cdot x + x \cdot - 6 - 6 (x - 6)$

Apply the distributive property.

$x = x \cdot x + x \cdot - 6 - 6 x - 6 \cdot - 6$

Simplify and combine like terms.

Simplify each term.

Multiply $x$ by $x$ .

$x = x^{2} + x \cdot - 6 - 6 x - 6 \cdot - 6$

Move $- 6$ to the left of $x$ .

$x = x^{2} - 6 \cdot x - 6 x - 6 \cdot - 6$

Multiply $- 6$ by $- 6$ .

$x = x^{2} - 6 x - 6 x + 36$

Subtract $6 x$ from $- 6 x$ .

$x = x^{2} - 12 x + 36$

Solve for $x$ .

Since $x$ is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.

$x^{2} - 12 x + 36 = x$

Move all terms containing $x$ to the left side of the equation.

Subtract $x$ from both sides of the equation.

$x^{2} - 12 x + 36 - x = 0$

Subtract $x$ from $- 12 x$ .

$x^{2} - 13 x + 36 = 0$

Factor $x^{2} - 13 x + 36$ using the AC method.

Consider the form $x^{2} + b x + c$ . Find a pair of integers whose product is $c$ and whose sum is $b$ . In this case, whose product is $36$ and whose sum is $- 13$ .

$- 9, - 4$

Write the factored form using these integers.

$(x - 9) (x - 4) = 0$

If any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to $0$ , the entire expression will be equal to $0$ .

$x - 9 = 0$

$x - 4 = 0$

Set $x - 9$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x - 9$ equal to $0$ .

$x - 9 = 0$

Add $9$ to both sides of the equation.

$x = 9$

Set $x - 4$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x - 4$ equal to $0$ .

$x - 4 = 0$

Add $4$ to both sides of the equation.

$x = 4$

The final solution is all the values that make $(x - 9) (x - 4) = 0$ true.

$x = 9, 4$

Exclude the solutions that do not make $\sqrt{x} - x + 6 = 0$ true.

$x = 9$

Solve for x square root of x-x+6=0
