You're right, it is not 3, it is \sqrt{9}

>>294609
you forgot to simplify
it's 3

You are asked to solve it, not to prove anything.

So it's either X (the most exact symbolic solution) or 3 (the most exact numerical solution).

I was once asked to prove if 0 is 0. I did it with no issues.

--3

I tried writing a java- program to solve this but it keps throwing errors when trying to use the addition class.
