question 11: A = 30000 is correct, both the others are incorrect.
how do you find extraneous solutions?
would the answer to the first question be -4?

@Rushwr
sorry for late reply for 1st, square both sides x+4 = (x-2)^2 can you solve the quadratic to get 2 vales of x?? one of them is extraneous
i got x=(5,0)
plug 5 and 0 in the original equation and see what happens. remember radical will give you only positive solution.
for example lets see 5 \[\Large \sqrt{5+4}=5-2\] \[\Large \sqrt{9}=3\] \[\Large 3=3\] now try zero.
@kittymeow101 there? put 0 in the original equation and see if both sides of '=' are same or not. if both sides are equal then 0 is not an extraneous root.
ok
there is no solution
@sami-21
so 0 is the extraneous root then.
ok ty, so could you help with no.12?
@sami-21
would the answer be option B
yes :)
