What values of b satisfy 4(3b + 2)2 = 64?

b = StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction and b = –2
b = 2 and b = StartFraction 10 Over 3 EndFraction
b = StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction and b = 3
b = 2 and b = StartFraction negative 10 Over 3 EndFraction

Answer:

[tex]b=\frac{2}{3}[/tex] and [tex]b=-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]4(3b+2)^{2}=64[/tex]

In order to find the values of b, we need to solve the equation for b.

Divide both sides by 4.

This gives,

[tex]4(3b+2)^{2}=64\\ \frac{4(3b+2)^{2}}{4}=\frac{64}{4}\\ (3b+2)^{2}=16 [/tex]

Taking square root both sides, we get,

[tex]\sqrt{(3b+2)^2}=\sqrt{16}\\3b+2=\pm 4\\3b=\pm 4-2\\b=\frac{-2\pm 4}{3}[/tex]

Now, [tex]b=\frac{-2+4}{3}\textrm{ or } b=\frac{-2-4}{3}\\b=\frac{2}{3}\textrm{ or } b=\frac{-6}{3}\\b=\frac{2}{3}\textrm{ or } b=-2[/tex]

Answer

b=\frac{2}{3} and b=-2
