3х2 = 147
Solve by undoing

+/- 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² = 147

To solve for x divide through by three first.

3x² = 147

x² = 49, now we take the square root of both side by trying to apply laws of indices.

√x² = √49

The square root will neutralize the effect of the square because

√a = a¹/² so (x²)¹/², and (x²)¹/² =

x²×¹/² = x, therefore the solution is

x = +/- 7.

5/14 should be right
