    Does your response include the following?

    Luca did not square the right side of the equation properly.

    When the binomial with the radical term is squared, the result still has a radical.

    After simplifying, both sides of the equation have to be squared again.

    After simplifying, the resulting quadratic trinomial can be solved by factoring.

    There are actually two solutions: x = 3 and x = 7.
