The value of x from the equation is 14 and it is extraneous since both sides of the equation is equal for the given solution
Solving rational expression
Given the rational expression below;
4√x+2=-16
Divide both sides by 4 to have:
4√x+2/4=-16/4
√x+2 = -4
Take the square of both sides
(√x+2)^2 = (-4)^2
x + 2 = 16
x = 16 - 2
x = 14
Hence the value of x from the equation is 14 and it is extraneous since both sides of the equation is equal for the given solution
