First, we can simplify the equation by isolating the variable on one side:

2√x + 6 - 3 = 19

2√x + 3 = 19

2√x = 16

√x = 8

Now we can square both sides of the equation to isolate x:

(√x)² = 8²

x = 64

Therefore, the solution to the equation 2√x + 6 - 3 = 19 is x = 64, which corresponds to answer choice (e).

Hope this helped (:
