do you mean
u = (sqrt(-6 + u))
please use the word 'sqrt' and put in ()
what is included under the radical
we will be able to assist you much faster if what you need is more clear
thank you
solve for u, u=sqrt -u+6
u=�ã-u+6

u = (sqrt(-u + 6))
u = (sqrt(6 - u))
square both sides
u^2 = 6 - u
u^2 + u - 6
complete the square
u^2 + u = 6
u^2 + u + 1/4 = 6 + 1/4
(u + 1/2)^2 = 25/4
take the square root of both sides
+ - (u + 1/2) = 5/2
u + 1/2 = 5/2
u = 4/2 = 2
-u - 1/2 = 5/2
-u = 6/2 = 3
u = -3
check for u = 2
u = (sqrt(6 - u))
2 = (sqrt(6 - 2))
2 = sqrt 4
2 = 2
check for u = -3
u = (sqrt(6 - u))
-3 = (sqrt(6 + 3))
-3 = sqrt 9
-3 not = 3
so, the only solution is u = 2
u = (sqrt(6 - u))
square both sides
u^2 = 6 - u
u^2 + u - 6
complete the square
u^2 + u = 6
u^2 + u + 1/4 = 6 + 1/4
(u + 1/2)^2 = 25/4
take the square root of both sides
+ - (u + 1/2) = 5/2
u + 1/2 = 5/2
u = 4/2 = 2
-u - 1/2 = 5/2
-u = 6/2 = 3
u = -3
check for u = 2
u = (sqrt(6 - u))
2 = (sqrt(6 - 2))
2 = sqrt 4
2 = 2
check for u = -3
u = (sqrt(6 - u))
-3 = (sqrt(6 + 3))
-3 = sqrt 9
-3 not = 3
so, the only solution is u = 2
