a) đk: \(x\ge2\)
Ta có: \(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{x-2}=2\sqrt{x-1}\) (đã sửa đề)
\(\Leftrightarrow x+2\sqrt{x\left(x-2\right)}=4\left(x-1\right)\)
\(\Leftrightarrow3x-4=2\sqrt{x^2-2x}\)
\(\Leftrightarrow9x^2-24x+16=4\left(x^2-2x\right)\)
\(\Leftrightarrow5x^2-16x+16=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow5\left(x^2-\frac{16}{5}x+\frac{64}{25}\right)+\frac{16}{5}=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow5\left(x-\frac{8}{5}\right)^2=-\frac{16}{5}\) vô lý
=> PT vô nghiệm
b) Đề chắc là: \(x^2+x+12=\sqrt{36}\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x^2+x+12-6=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x^2+x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+\frac{23}{4}=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x+\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=-\frac{23}{4}\) vô lý
=> PT vô nghiệm
