if it is \[2x-\sqrt{15-4x}=0\] \[2x=\sqrt{15-4x}\]
then do what after that
then square both sides to get \[4x^2=15-4x\] \[4x^2+4x-15=0\] \[(2x-3)(2x+5)=0\] and so \[2x-3=0\] \[2x=3\] \[x=\frac{3}{2}\]
or \[2x+5=0\] \[2x=-5\] \[x=-\frac{5}{2}\]
but you have to check your answers because we squared as the second step. you need to plug in both of these numbers for x and see if they both work
