READER: It will take sometime to embed and narrate my titles. I have a PDF and digital voice alternative (on each page) while I work on the audiobooks one chapter at-a-time. Thank you for your patience!

Solve by the Square Root Method

(3z-2)^2=4

Recall the Square Root Rule

x^2=a \quad \Rightarrow \quad x=\pm\sqrt{a}

Take the Square Root of Both Sides

3z-2=\pm\sqrt{4}

3z-2=\pm2

Split Into Two Equations

3z-2=2 \quad \text{or} \quad 3z-2=-2

Solve Each Equation

3z-2+2=2+2

3z=4

z=\frac{4}{3}

3z-2+2=-2+2

3z=0

z=0

Final Answers

z=\frac{4}{3} \quad \text{or} \quad z=0

Square Root Method Summary

  • Isolate the squared expression
  • Take the square root of both sides
  • Include plus and minus
  • Solve each equation separately
