2x-3=\sqrt{6} 2x-3=-\sqrt{6}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
2x-3-\left(-3\right)=\sqrt{6}-\left(-3\right) 2x-3-\left(-3\right)=-\sqrt{6}-\left(-3\right)
Add 3 to both sides of the equation.
2x=\sqrt{6}-\left(-3\right) 2x=-\sqrt{6}-\left(-3\right)
Subtracting -3 from itself leaves 0.
2x=\sqrt{6}+3
Subtract -3 from \sqrt{6}.
2x=3-\sqrt{6}
Subtract -3 from -\sqrt{6}.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{6}+3}{2} \frac{2x}{2}=\frac{3-\sqrt{6}}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{\sqrt{6}+3}{2} x=\frac{3-\sqrt{6}}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
