Part a· 3 steps

We need to solve the equation (3x)2+2(3x)−3=0(3^x)^2 + 2(3^x) - 3 = 0.

  1. Let y=3xy = 3^x.

    Substitute this into the equation.

    y2+2y−3=0y^2 + 2y - 3 = 0
  2. Solve the quadratic equation for yy.

    We can factor the quadratic expression.

    (y+3)(y−1)=0(y+3)(y-1) = 0

    This gives two possible values for yy:

    y+3=0  ⟹  y=−3y+3 = 0 \implies y = -3 y−1=0  ⟹  y=1y-1 = 0 \implies y = 1
  3. Substitute back y=3xy = 3^x and solve for xx.

    For y=−3y = -3:

    3x=−33^x = -3

    An exponential function 3x3^x can never be negative, so there is no real solution for xx in this case.

    For y=1y = 1:

    3x=13^x = 1

    Since any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1, we have:

    3x=303^x = 3^0

    Therefore,

    x=0x = 0

    The solution for the equation is:

    x=0\boxed{x = 0}

Evaluate the following expressions

  1. Evaluate 323/232^{3/2}.

    323/2=(32)3=(42)3=43⋅(2)3=64⋅(22)=128232^{3/2} = (\sqrt{32})^3 = (4\sqrt{2})^3 = 4^3 \cdot (\sqrt{2})^3 = 64 \cdot (2\sqrt{2}) = 128\sqrt{2} 1282\boxed{128\sqrt{2}}
  2. Evaluate 251/525^{1/5}.

    251/5=(52)1/5=52/525^{1/5} = (5^2)^{1/5} = 5^{2/5} 52/5\boxed{5^{2/5}}
  3. Evaluate 2164/3216^{4/3}.

    2164/3=(2163)4216^{4/3} = (\sqrt[3]{216})^4

    Since 63=2166^3 = 216, we have 2163=6\sqrt[3]{216} = 6.

    (2163)4=64=1296(\sqrt[3]{216})^4 = 6^4 = 1296 1296\boxed{1296}
  4. Evaluate 19019^0.

    Any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1.

    190=119^0 = 1 1\boxed{1}
