Question:

In this section we introduced methods of solving equations quadratic in form by substitution and solving equations involving radicals by raising each side of the equation to a power. Suppose we wish to solve x - √x - 12 = 0. We can solve this equation using either of the two methods. To see how both methods apply. Solve 3x - 2√x - 8 = 0 using one of the two methods described.
