Answer:

There is no real solution set for this equation

Explanation:

We have


√(2x-1)+7=4


Move 7 to the right side:



√(2x-1)+7-7=4-7\\\\√(2x-1)=-3\\\\

If we treat 2x - 1 as a function f(x) then we are getting


√(f(x)) = -3\\\\

But the square root of a function cannot be negative for real values of x

Hence there is no real solution set
