Answer: X= 1, 2


Step-by-step explanation:



Anand230703: pls provide step by step explanation
dariengannon: Let’s start with a sub, we see that 9, 12, and 16 share in common a 3 and a 4, so…

a=3x

b=4x

This is probably the hardest part of the problem, determining which things to substitute. Now we plug it in:

64(32)x−84(3x4x)+27(42)x=0

64(3x)2−84(3x4x)+27(4x)2=0

64a2−84ab+27b2=0

Now we can factor this, (I just some brute force and got it on my second try)

(16a−9b)(4a−3b)=0

16a=9b

4a=3b

Now let’s resubstitute:

16(3x)=9(4x)

4(3x)=3(4x)

43=(43)x;x=1

169=(43)x;x=2

Wasn’t that just beautiful? I love algebra,

x=1,2

Hence 9×16=(12)

then we divide its both side by 12

and obtain

64.(

)

x

=0

Let (

x

=t then equation (1) reduce in the form

64t

−84t+27=0

where t

=
