Your answer would be D. Bc you haven't divide a from b to get f on the other side if the equation.
x = 5 is not an extraneous solution of the equation.
✓(2x + 6) - ✓(x - 1) = 2
✓(2x + 6) = 2 + ✓(x - 1)
Squaring both the sides of equation, we get
(✓(2x + 6))² = (2 + ✓(x - 1))²
2x + 6 = (2)² + (✓(x - 1))² + 2(2)(✓(x - 1))
2x + 6 = 4 + x - 1 + 4(✓(x - 1))
x + 3 = 4✓(x - 1)
Squaring again on both the side of the equation, we get
(x + 3)² = (4✓(x - 1))²
x² + 3² + 2×3×x = 16(x - 1)
x² + 9 + 6x = 16x - 16
x² - 10x + 25 = 0
By applying middle term splitting on equation (1), we get
x² - 5x - 5x + 25 = 0
x(x - 5) -5(x - 5) = 0
(x - 5) (x - 5) = 0
x = 5 and 5.
Check for extraneous solutions by putting value of x in original equation -
✓(2×5 + 6) - ✓(5 - 1) = 2
✓16 - ✓4 = 2
4 - 2 = 2
2 = 2
LHS = RHS
x = 5 is not an extraneous solution of the equation.

Thanks for the free points
Let's brake this up. He earns 14 dollars per hour. Then he works 12 hours per week. So 14 times 12 is 168. 168 times 4 equals 672 dollars :P
