A student concluded that the solution to the

equation v2x+1+3=0 is x=4.

Do you agree? Explain why or why not.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is √2x+1+3=0

And we have been given that x = 4

I do not agree with the solution because it does not give any real solution. It only gives possible solution. If you plug the value 4 in the original equation you will get 8 and the square root of 8 is a complex number. Thus 4 is an extraneous solution ...
