sqrt 2y+7+4=y
sqrt(2y)=y-11 subtract ll from each side.
2y=y^2-22y+121 square each side
y^2-24y+121=0 subtract 2y from each side.

Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons:



For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

Discriminant d=92 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .




Quadratic expression can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 16.7958315233127, 7.20416847668728. Here's your graph:
