What is the solution set of (3x - 1)2 = 5?

Let's solve your equation step-by-step. (3x−1)(2)=5

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation. (3x−1)(2)=5

simplify:   (3x)(2)+(−1)(2)=5(distribute) 6x+−2=5 6x−2=5

step 2: add 2 to both sides. 6x−2+2=5+2 6x=7

step 3: divide both sides by 6. 6x/6=7/6 x=7/6

answer: x=7/6

good luck mate : p

The answer is 7/6. distribute the 2. add 2. divide the 6.
