        f(x) = x² + 4x - 1
            y = x² + 4x - 1
      y + 1 = x² + 4x - 1 + 1
      y + 1 = x² + 4x
y + 1 + 4 = x² + 4x + 4
      y + 5 = x² + 2x + 2x + 4
      y + 5 = x(x) + x(2) + 2(x) + 2(2)
      y + 5 = x(x + 2) + 2(x + 2)
      y + 5 = (x + 2)(x + 2)
      y + 5 = (x + 2)²
 y + 5 - 5 = (x + 2)² - 5
            y = (x + 2)² - 5
        f(x) = (x + 2)² - 5

I don't know how to solve this.Please help!<br> 3^x=2
svet-max [94.6K]
So 3^X= 2 is an exponential equation. The inverse of an exponential in ln. so take ln of both sides to solve.

Another way is to change the exponential into a log equation
So that would be log with base 3 to the power of 2 equals x.
