SQRT(2x - 3) = X - 3
\n" ); document.write( "Square both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "2x-3 = x^2-6x+9
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-8x+12 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "(x-6)(x-2)=0
\n" ); document.write( "x = 6 or x = 2
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Checking:
\n" ); document.write( "x=6 checks positive
\n" ); document.write( "x=2 is extraneous
