Question

I need help on figuring out a solution of an equation!!

Answer 1

\[4(3-x)^{\frac{ 4}{3 }}-5=59\]

Answer 2

I got 5 and -11 but that doesn't match any of my choices.

Answer 3

–5, 11
5
11
–11

These are my choices

Answer 4

in this case since you have choices, you could plug any of those in with x, and see which one is true! we can start with -5

4(3 - x) ^ (4/3) - 5 = 59

4(3+5) ^ (4/3) - 5 = 59

(12 +20) ^ (4/3) - 5 = 59

22^ (4/3) - 5 = 59

22^ (4/3) - 5 = 59

can you do the rest?

Answer 5

Yes I can.

Answer 6

Pretty sure there is a mistake in your response because nothing matches the choices if I do it that way

Answer 7

oh whoops. but you get the point right? plug it in and see which one equals 59:) i hope i helped.. sorry for the confusion.

Answer 8

It's alright ( :
