sqrt(4x+17)=x-1

Solution

4 x + 17 = x - 1

Solution

x = 8

Solution steps

4 x + 17 = x - 1

Square both sides:

4 x + 17 = x^{2} - 2 x + 1

4 x + 17 = x^{2} - 2 x + 1

Solve

4 x + 17 = x^{2} - 2 x + 1 : x = 8, x = - 2

x = 8, x = - 2

Verify Solutions:

x = 8

True

, x = - 2

False

The solution is

x = 8

Popular Examples

1/(sqrt(x))+5=0

\frac{1}{x} + 5 = 0

sqrt(x)-sqrt(x-8)=sqrt(x-5)

x - x - 8 = x - 5

3sqrt(8x)-sqrt(3x-2)=10

3 8 x - 3 x - 2 = 10

sqrt(x-2)=sqrt(x)+2

x - 2 = x + 2

(x-5)^{5/2}=243

(x - 5)^{\frac{5}{2}} = 243
