[tex]\bf \sqrt{2x+30}=x+3\impliedby \textit{we'll squares both sides} \\\\\\ (\sqrt{2x+30})^2=(x+3)^2\implies 2x+30=x^2+6x+9 \\\\\\ 0=x^2+4x-21\implies 0=(x+7)(x-3)\implies x= \begin{cases} -7\\ 3 \end{cases}[/tex]

I don't see  an extraneous value there, -7 checks out well if you plug it in the original equation, and so does 3.
