Solve Equations 76E9C2
1. **Problem a:** Solve $3(y + 1)^2 - 5 = 43$.
2. **Rewrite the equation:** Add 5 to both sides:
$$3(y + 1)^2 = 48$$
3. **Undo the multiplication:** Divide both sides by 3:
$$ (y + 1)^2 = 16 $$
4. **Undo the square:** Take the square root of both sides:
$$ y + 1 = \pm 4 $$
5. **Solve for $y$:**
- If $y + 1 = 4$, then $y = 3$
- If $y + 1 = -4$, then $y = -5$
---
1. **Problem b:** Solve $\sqrt{1 - 4x} = 10$.
2. **Undo the square root:** Square both sides:
$$ 1 - 4x = 100 $$
3. **Solve for $x$:**
$$ -4x = 99 $$
$$ x = -\frac{99}{4} = -24.75 $$
---
1. **Problem c:** Solve $\frac{6y - 1}{y} - 3 = 2$.
2. **Rewrite the equation:** Add 3 to both sides:
$$ \frac{6y - 1}{y} = 5 $$
3. **Multiply both sides by $y$ to clear the denominator:**
$$ 6y - 1 = 5y $$
4. **Solve for $y$:**
$$ 6y - 5y = 1 $$
$$ y = 1 $$
---
1. **Problem d:** Solve $\sqrt[3]{1 - 2x} = 3$.
2. **Undo the cube root:** Cube both sides:
$$ 1 - 2x = 27 $$
3. **Solve for $x$:**
$$ -2x = 26 $$
$$ x = -13 $$
---
**Final answers:**
- a) $y = 3$ or $y = -5$
- b) $x = -24.75$
- c) $y = 1$
- d) $x = -13$
