Answer:

There is no solution for the given radical equation.

x = 225/16 is an extraneous solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

Squaring both sides

Divide both sides by 16

Substituting back the value of x in original equation to check the extraneous solution.

Since -18≠ 12. Hence, the value of x does not satisfy the equation.

Therefore, x = 225/16 is an extraneous solution.
