\/ 13 - 2*x  = 6
$$\sqrt{13 - 2 x} = 6$$
Detail solution
Given the equation
$$\sqrt{13 - 2 x} = 6$$
Because equation degree is equal to = 1/2 - does not contain even numbers in the numerator, then
the equation has single real root.
We raise the equation sides to 2-th degree:
We get:
$$\left(\sqrt{13 - 2 x}\right)^{2} = 6^{2}$$
or
$$13 - 2 x = 36$$
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 2 x = 23$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -2
x = 23 / (-2)

We get the answer: x = -23/2

The final answer:
$$x_{1} = - \frac{23}{2}$$
