Answer:  The solution is x = -2.

Step-by-step explanation:  The given equation is as follows:

\sqrt{2x+13}-5=x.

We will be using the following algebraic identities:

(i)~(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2,\\\\(ii)~(\sqrt{a+b})^2=a+b.

The solution is as follows:

\sqrt{2x+13}-5=x\\\\\Rightarrow \sqrt{2x+13}=x+5\\\\\Rightarrow (\sqrt{2x+13})^2=(x+5)^2\\\\\Rightarrow 2x+13=x^2+10x+25\\\\\Rightarrow x^2+8x+12=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2+6x+2x+12=0\\\\\Rightarrow x(x+6)+2(x+6)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x+2)(x+6)=0\\\\\Rightarrow x+2=0,~~~~~~x+6=0\\\\\Rightarrow x=-2,~-6.

If we substitute x = -2, then

L.H.S=\sqrt{2\times (-2)+13}-5=\sqrt9-5=3-5=-2=R.H.S.

Ie we substitute x = -6, then

L.H.S=\sqrt{2\times (-6)+13}-5=\sqrt1-5=1-5=-4\neq -6=x=R.H.S.

Since x = -6 does not satisfy the given equation, so the solution is x = -2.

Thus, the solution is x = -2.
