we get x2-2 = 2[x]
So, x must be an integer.
So, [x] = x
SO,
x2-2x-2=0
==> x=(2±√4+8)/2 which does not give any integral values of x.

SO, NO SOLUTION

edits:
one solution. only
the mistake i had made was that x2 must be an integer. This does not imply that x must be an integer. x can be be √k where k is a whole no.
From gordo's graph (perfect),
we see that x lies in (2,3) so [x]=2
So, x2 = 2 + 2[x] = 2+4 = 6
So, x = √6 is the only solution of this equation.

x2-2-2[x]=0
x2-2=2[x]
x2-2/2=[x]
This is graph of x2-2/2 and [x]
Hence it has one solution

yes no ·

:O

****we get x2-2 = 2[x]
So, x must be an integer.********

how u can say that ashish??

see if x is some square root of a integer ,even then ..............
correct me if i am wrong
