Điều kiện xác định: \(\left\{{}\begin{matrix}5x^2+4x\ge0\\x^2-3x-18\ge0\\x\ge0\end{matrix}\right.\) \(\Leftrightarrow\left\{{}\begin{matrix}x\left(5x+4\right)\ge0\\\left(x-6\right)\left(x+3\right)\ge0\\x\ge0\end{matrix}\right.\) \(\Leftrightarrow\left\{{}\begin{matrix}\left[{}\begin{matrix}x\ge0\\x\le\dfrac{-4}{5}\end{matrix}\right.\\\left[{}\begin{matrix}x\ge6\\x\le-3\end{matrix}\right.\end{matrix}\right.\) \(\Leftrightarrow x\ge6\) (*)
Khi đó phương trình \(\Leftrightarrow\) \(\sqrt{5x^2+4x}=\sqrt{x^2-3x-18}+5\sqrt{x}\)
\(\Leftrightarrow5x^2+4x=x^2+22x-18+10\sqrt{x\left(x^2-3x-18\right)}\\ \Leftrightarrow4x^2-18x+18=10\sqrt{x\left(x^2-3x-18\right)}\\ \Leftrightarrow5\sqrt{x\left(x-6\right)\left(x+3\right)}=2x^2-9x+9\\ \Leftrightarrow5\sqrt{\left(x^2-6x\right)\left(x+3\right)}=2\left(x^2-6x\right)+3\left(x+3\right)\left(1\right)\)
Đặt \(\left\{{}\begin{matrix}a=\sqrt{x^2-6x}\ge0\\b=\sqrt{x+3}\ge0\end{matrix}\right.\)
Khi đó pt \(\left(1\right)\) trở thành: \(2a^2+3b^2-5ab=0\\ \Leftrightarrow\left(a-b\right)\left(2a-3b\right)=0\\ \Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}a=b\\2a=3b\end{matrix}\right.\)
- TH1: \(a=b\Rightarrow x^2-6x=x+3\Leftrightarrow x^2-7x-3=0\\ \Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}\dfrac{7+\sqrt{61}}{2}\left(tm\right)\\\dfrac{7-\sqrt{61}}{2}\left(ktm\right)\end{matrix}\right.\)
-TH2: \(2a=3b\Leftrightarrow4a^2=9b^2\\ \Leftrightarrow4\left(x^2-6x\right)=9\left(x+3\right)\\ \Leftrightarrow4x^2-33x-27=0\\ \Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=9\left(tm\right)\\x=\dfrac{-3}{4}\left(ktm\right)\end{matrix}\right.\)
Vậy pt có 2 nghiệm \(x=\dfrac{7+\sqrt{61}}{2};x=9\)
