we have
squared both sides
solve the quadratic equation by graphing
The solution is x=-6 and x=-1
see the attached figure
<u><em>Verify each solution</em></u>
substitute the value of x in the original expression
For x=-6
----> is not true
so
Is an extraneous solution
For x=-1
----> is true
so
Is the solution
