It's not a good idea to use the "√" in your equations; the meaning is usually unclear.

As you posted it, the equation is

%28x-sqrt%28x%29%2B1%29%2F%28x%2Bsqrt%28x%29%2B1%29=11%2F5

But possibly you meant

%28x-sqrt%28x%2B1%29%29%2F%28x%2Bsqrt%28x%2B1%29%29=11%2F5

Re-post, making it clear what the given equation is.
