Solution :-
Squaring on both sides
⇒ (2√x)² = (x - 3)²
⇒ 4x = x² + 3² - 2(x)(3)
Since (a - b)² = a² + b² - 2ab
⇒ 4x = x² + 9 - 6x
⇒ 0 = x² + 9 - 6x - 4x
⇒ 0 = x² + 9 - 10x
⇒ 0 = x² - 10x + 9
⇒ x² - 10x + 9 = 0
Splitting the middle term
⇒ x² - 9x - x + 9 = 0
⇒ x(x - 9) - 1(x - 9) = 0
⇒ (x - 1)(x - 9) = 0
⇒ x - 1 = 0 or x - 9 = 0
⇒ x = 1 or x = 9
Value of x cannot be 1 because the power of it becomes 1/0 and in which the LHS is not equal to 2.
So value of x is 9.
