Homework Statement
This is the problem. I seem to be having a hard time removing the radicals.
The answer should be 12/5. I have no idea how to get there. I am just trying to learn how to handle a situation like this, so I can be prepared in the future.
2x*(4x-1)^-1/2 - 3sqrt(4-x) = 0
The Attempt at a Solution
I've tried flipping the negative exponent into a fraction and then combining it into one fraction. I tried to directly remove the radicals by squaring everything, but somewhere I must be doing something wrong.
Any hints to the procedures on how to solve this?
