Solving equations Solve the following equations.


3(ˣ³⁻⁴) = 15

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Step 1: Start by isolating the exponential expression. Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to simplify: \( \frac{3(x^3 - 4)}{3} = \frac{15}{3} \).
Step 2: Simplify the equation from Step 1. This results in \( x^3 - 4 = 5 \).
Step 3: Solve for \( x^3 \) by adding 4 to both sides of the equation: \( x^3 = 5 + 4 \).
Step 4: Simplify the right side of the equation from Step 3: \( x^3 = 9 \).
Step 5: Solve for \( x \) by taking the cube root of both sides: \( x = \sqrt[3]{9} \).

Properties of Equality

The properties of equality state that if two expressions are equal, then one can be manipulated without changing the equality. This includes adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing both sides of the equation by the same non-zero number. These properties are essential for solving equations systematically.
