Explanation & Answer

The solutions are ready. Please ask if something is unclear or if your need more details.There are two uncertainties in the conditions, I marked them with yellow. Answer to these questions and I'll re-solve if needed. docx and pdf files are identical

1. (2𝑥 + 3)2 = 27. Note that 2𝑥 + 3 must be non-negative, i.e. 𝑥 ≥ − 2. Now we can
raise both sides to the power
((2𝑥 +

and obtain an equivalent equation:

= 2𝑥 + 3 = 273 = (33 )3 = 32 = 9, 2𝑥 = 9 − 3 = 6, 𝑥 =

= 𝟑.

This 𝒙 = 𝟑 ≥ − 2 and thus is the only solution. Or you need complex solutions, too?

2. 𝑦 4 − 40𝑦 2 + 144 = 0. Denote 𝑥 = 𝑦 2 , then 𝑥 2 − 40𝑥 + 144 = 0.
Use the quadratic formula for an even 𝑏:
𝑥 = 20 ± √202 − 144 = 20 ± √256 = 20 ± 16 = 4; 36.
Now solve 𝑦 2 = 4 or 𝑦 2 = 36 and obtain four roots: −𝟐, 𝟐, −𝟔, 𝟔.
