Square both sides,





You can factor this equation,

Find solutions for both of those quadratic equations and then verify that they solve the original equation (because of the square root in the original equation).

Square both sides:







   

   

There are no sign changes, so by Descartes' rule of signs,
there are no positive roots.

However any non-positive value of x would cause the left
side of the equation



to be the square root of a negative number, which is not a real 
number.

Therefore there are no real solutions.
