The first step would be to find the equation that you are trying to solve!

There is no equality symbol in the question and so no equation!
the first step in solving the equation is to subtract the nine from the three. you will get negative 6.
First, you use proper English and say maths, then you have to find the problem eg if I'm finding the area of a square I would have to find out the equation to find the area. If you can find how the method of solving it the rest is easy!
It often helps to isolate the radical, and then square both sides. Beware of extraneous solutions - the new equation may have solutions that are not part of the solutions of the original equation, so you definitely need to check any purported solutions with the original equation.
Details may vary depending on the equation. Quite often, you have to square both sides of the equation, to get rid of the radical sign. It may be necessary to rearrange the equation before doing this, after doing this, or both. Squaring both sides of the equation may introduce "extraneous" roots (solutions), that is, solutions that are not part of the original equation, so you have to check each solution of the second equation, to see whether it is also a solution of the first equation.
