.
4*3y + 5*sqrt(3y) - 21 = 0.


Introduce new variable x = sqrt(3y). Then your equations takes the form

 = 0.

Apply the quadratic formula

 =  =  = .


1.   =  =   --->   =   --->  3y =  =   --->  y =  = .


2.   =  = -3  --->   = -3  --->  3y =  = 9  --->  y =  = 3.


The root y =  satisfies the original equation.

The root y = 3 does not satisfy. It is EXTRANEOUS root (it is not the solution).

Answer. y = .


There is another way to solve the original equation by isolating the term and then squaring both sides.

It should lead to the same result.
