4) Find the solution set: 5) Solve: Sum It Up
• To solve advanced radical equation, we still use the same method as before, but we sometimes cannot isolate one radical if there are multiple.
• However, we can still obtain extraneous solutions (that do not check).
• Always check for extraneous solutions!
