SOLUTION: Solve root3 x + root2 x = 1 I mean the root sign is just for the 3 or the 2 and the x is separately after that.

root%283%2Cx%29+%2B+sqrt%28x%29+=+1
---
root%283%2Cx%29+-+1+=+-sqrt%28x%29
Square both sides
root%283%2Cx%5E2%29+-+root%283%2C8x%29+%2B+1+=+x
root%283%2Cx%5E2%29+=+root%283%2C8x%29+-+1+%2B+x
Cubing both sides gets messy and results in at least a 6th power of x.
