$y^2=3$
Learn how to solve problems step by step online. Solve the equation yy=3. When multiplying two powers that have the same base (y), you can add the exponents. Removing the variable's exponent. Cancel exponents 2 and \frac{1}{2}. As in the equation we have the sign \pm, this produces two identical equations that differ in the sign of the term \sqrt{3}. We write and solve both equations, one taking the positive sign, and the other taking the negative sign.
