The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we start with the given value of \( x \): ### Step 1: Substitute the value of \( x \) Given: \[ x = 5 - \sqrt{21} \] ### Step 2: Calculate \( 2x \) We need to find \( 2x \): \[ 2x = 2(5 - \sqrt{21}) = 10 - 2\sqrt{21} \] ### Step 3: Calculate \( \sqrt{x} \) To find \( \sqrt{x} \), we first express \( x \) in a suitable form: \[ \sqrt{x} = \sqrt{5 - \sqrt{21}} \] ### Step 4: Rewrite \( \sqrt{x} \) We can rewrite \( 5 - \sqrt{21} \) in terms of squares: \[ 5 - \sqrt{21} = \left(\sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3}\right)^2 \] Thus, \[ \sqrt{x} = \sqrt{\left(\sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3}\right)^2} = \sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( \sqrt{32 - 2x} \) Now we calculate \( \sqrt{32 - 2x} \): \[ 32 - 2x = 32 - (10 - 2\sqrt{21}) = 32 - 10 + 2\sqrt{21} = 22 + 2\sqrt{21} \] Next, we can express \( 22 + 2\sqrt{21} \) in a square form: \[ 22 + 2\sqrt{21} = \left(\sqrt{21} + 1\right)^2 \] Thus, \[ \sqrt{32 - 2x} = \sqrt{\left(\sqrt{21} + 1\right)^2} = \sqrt{21} + 1 \] ### Step 6: Substitute into the expression Now we substitute \( \sqrt{x} \) and \( \sqrt{32 - 2x} \) into the original expression: \[ \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{32 - 2x} - \sqrt{21}} = \frac{\sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3}}{(\sqrt{21} + 1) - \sqrt{21}} = \frac{\sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3}}{1} \] ### Step 7: Final Result Thus, the value of the expression is: \[ \sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3} \] ### Step 8: Divide by \( \sqrt{2} \) To express this in the required form: \[ \frac{\sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}} \] ### Conclusion: The final answer is: \[ \frac{\sqrt{7} - \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}} \]
