?^2 * 3 + 5 = 34

3 answers

To solve the equation \( x^2 \cdot 3 + 5 = 34 \), follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 5 from both sides: \[ x^2 \cdot 3 = 34 - 5 \] \[ x^2 \cdot 3 = 29 \]

  2. Divide both sides by 3: \[ x^2 = \frac{29}{3} \]

  3. To find \( x \), take the square root of both sides: \[ x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{29}{3}} \]

  4. You can simplify the square root: \[ x = \pm \frac{\sqrt{29}}{\sqrt{3}} = \pm \frac{\sqrt{87}}{3} \]

Thus, the solutions to the equation are: \[ x = \frac{\sqrt{87}}{3} \quad \text{or} \quad x = -\frac{\sqrt{87}}{3} \]

its a number 1-7

Given that the solution must be a number between 1 and 7, let's solve the equation while finding the value of \(x\) within that range.

Starting from the equation: \[ 3x^2 + 5 = 34 \]

  1. Subtract 5 from both sides: \[ 3x^2 = 34 - 5 \] \[ 3x^2 = 29 \]

  2. Divide both sides by 3: \[ x^2 = \frac{29}{3} \]

  3. Take the square root: \[ x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{29}{3}} \]

Now, let's calculate \(x\) to see if it falls within the range of 1 to 7: \[ x = \sqrt{\frac{29}{3}} \approx \sqrt{9.67} \approx 3.11 \]

Since \(\sqrt{\frac{29}{3}} \approx 3.11\), the positive root of the equation is indeed between 1 and 7.

Thus, the valid solution is: \[ x \approx 3.11 \]
