Solve for $x \in \mathbb{R}$
$$4x^2(x+2) +3(2x^2-4x-3)\sqrt{4x+3} +6x = 0$$
I tried taking square by isolating the radical, but the resultant equation couldn't be solved.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Let $X=4x+3$. Then, $$3(2x^2-X)\sqrt{X}=-2x(2x^2+X)$$ Squaring the both sides gives $$9(2x^2-X)^2X=4x^2(2x^2+X)^2,$$ i.e. $$4x^4X-4x^2X^2+9X^3-16x^6+16x^4X-36x^2X^2=0$$ $$X(4x^4-4x^2X+9X^2)-4x^2(4x^4-4x^2X+9X^2)=0$$ $$(X-4x^2)(4x^4-4x^2X+9X^2)=0$$ since $9X^2=X^2+8X^2$ $$(X-4x^2)(4x^4-4x^2X+X^2+8X^2)=0$$ to have $$(X-4x^2)((2x^2-X)^2+8X^2)=0$$ finally, $$(-4x^2+4x+3)((2 x^2-4 x-3)^2+8 (4 x+3)^2)=0$$ and so $$x=\frac 32,-\frac 12.$$ The former is sufficient while the latter isn't. So, $\color{red}{x=\frac 32}$ is the only solution.
