You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"2sqrt%28x%29%2B8=6\"$ . The equation is the same as $\"2sqrt%28x%29+=+6+-+8\"$ , or $\"2sqrt%28x%29+=+-2\"$ , or $\"sqrt%28x%29+=+-1\"$ . Incidentally, the quantity $\"sqrt%28x%29\"$ can only be non-negative, and so the last equation has no real solution in x. It is inconsistent.\r
