Answer:

[tex]x=142[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

[tex]\sqrt{x+2}-15=-3[/tex]

Adding 15 on both the sides, we get

[tex]\sqrt{x+2}-15+15=-3+15[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{x+2}=12[/tex]

Squaring on both the sides of the equations, we have

[tex]x+2=144[/tex]

Subtracting 2 on both the sides, we get

[tex]x+2-2=144-2[/tex]

[tex]x=142[/tex]

Thus, the solution of the given equation is [tex]x=142[/tex].

Hence, option A is correct.
