\sqrt{2x+6}=10
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x+3.
2x+6=100
Square both sides of the equation.
2x+6-6=100-6
Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.
2x=100-6
Subtracting 6 from itself leaves 0.
2x=94
Subtract 6 from 100.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{94}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{94}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=47
Divide 94 by 2.
