can someone solve this radical question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt{5 - 2x} - \sqrt{2 - x} - \sqrt{3 - x} = 0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solve for x

hartnn (hartnn):

first take one of the square root sign on other side and square it then isolate the only square root sign on one side and square again.....

mathslover (mathslover):

@Lol9999 please tell what you get after getting awesome guidance/instructions from @hartnn

mathslover (mathslover):

Please do reply..

hartnn (hartnn):

:P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... Lol, I'm a bit dazzled.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

More concrete work please?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So do I just find the square root of both sides?

mathslover (mathslover):

oh k .. \[\large{\sqrt{5-2x}-\sqrt{2-x}-\sqrt{3-x}=0}\] \[\large{\color{blue}{\sqrt{5-2x}-\sqrt{2-x}=\sqrt{3-x}}}\] what i did was that just added \(\large{\sqrt{3-x}}\) both sides

mathslover (mathslover):

now square both sides : \[\large{\color{green}{(\sqrt{5-2x}-\sqrt{2-x})^2=(\sqrt{3-x})^2}}\]

mathslover (mathslover):

Can you do it now @Lol9999 ?

mathslover (mathslover):

lemme know what you get after what simplifying that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks (:

mathslover (mathslover):

no problem and also : \[\huge{\color{blue}{\cal{Welcome}}\space \color{green}{\textbf{TO}}\space \color{red}{\mathbb{OpenStudy}}}\]
