Question

How do you solve for a in `sqrta + 9 = b + 3`?

Answer 1

You can't solve for an integer result.

Explanation:

While this equation can't actually be solved to give an integer value for `a`, it can be rearranged, though it doesn't provide much use:
`sqrta = b+3-9`
`sqrta = b-6`
`a = sqrta(b-6)`
