The equation $\sqrt {(x + 1)} - \sqrt {(x - 1)} = \sqrt {(4x - 1)} $, $x \in R$ has
A
One solution
B
Two solution
C
Four solution
D
No solution
Solution
(d) Given $\sqrt {(x + 1)} – \sqrt {(x – 1)} = \sqrt {(4x – 1)} $…..$(i)$
Squaring both sides, we get, $ – 2\sqrt {({x^2} – 1)} = 2x – 1$
Squaring again, we get, $x = {5 \over 4},$ which does not satisfy eq. $(i).$
Hence, there is no solution of the given equation.
