Provide an appropriate response.Solve the equation  for x. If y is positive and b is positive, what, if anything, can you determine about the signs of the solutions? Explain your reasoning.

What will be an ideal response?


  or . Since b is positive, the first term in the numerator is negative. Since y is positive, the radicand is greater than b2 and the square root is, thus, greater than b. Therefore, the sign of the first solution is positive and the sign of the second is negative.
