(√x) = t ⇒ t^4 + 12t−5 =0 let x +2(√x) = t^2 +2t = k with Horner method we get t^4 +12t−5 = (t^2 +2t−k)(t^2 −2t+k+4)+ (4−4k)t +k^2 +4k−5

$$\sqrt{{x}}\:=\:{t}\:\Rightarrow\:{t}^{\mathrm{4}} \:+\:\mathrm{12}{t}−\mathrm{5}\:=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${let}\:{x}\:+\mathrm{2}\sqrt{{x}}\:=\:{t}^{\mathrm{2}} \:+\mathrm{2}{t}\:=\:{k} \\ $$$${with}\:{Horner}\:{method}\:{we}\:{get}\: \\ $$$${t}^{\mathrm{4}} +\mathrm{12}{t}−\mathrm{5}\:=\:\left({t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2}{t}−{k}\right)\left({t}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}{t}+{k}+\mathrm{4}\right)+\:\left(\mathrm{4}−\mathrm{4}{k}\right){t}\:+{k}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{4}{k}−\mathrm{5} \\ $$

x^2 +12(√x)=5 12(√x)=5−x^2 squaring ⇒ we might get false solutions ... x^4 −10x^2 −144x+25=0 (x^2 −6x+1)(x^2 +6x+25)=0 ⇒ x=3±2(√2) but x=3+2(√2) is false ⇒ x=3−2(√2) ⇒ answer is 1

$${x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{12}\sqrt{{x}}=\mathrm{5} \\ $$$$\mathrm{12}\sqrt{{x}}=\mathrm{5}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{squaring}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{we}\:\mathrm{might}\:\mathrm{get}\:\mathrm{false}\:\mathrm{solutions} \\ $$$$… \\ $$$${x}^{\mathrm{4}} −\mathrm{10}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{144}{x}+\mathrm{25}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{6}{x}+\mathrm{1}\right)\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{6}{x}+\mathrm{25}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{x}=\mathrm{3}\pm\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\:\mathrm{but}\:{x}=\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\:\mathrm{is}\:\:\mathrm{false} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{x}=\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{answer}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{1} \\ $$
