Answer:

$\frac{-3+ 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\textrm{ and }\frac{-3- 2\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(2b+3)^{2}=36\\\frac{3(2b+3)^{2}}{3}=\frac{36}{3}\\(2b+3)^{2}=12$

Taking square root both sides, we get

$\sqrt{(2b+3)^{2}}=\pm \sqrt{12}\\2b+3=\pm \sqrt{4\times 3}\\2b+3=\pm 2\sqrt{3}\\2b+3-3=\pm 2\sqrt{3}-3\\2b=-3\pm 2\sqrt{3}\\b=\frac{-3\pm 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\\b=\frac{-3+ 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\textrm{ or }b=\frac{-3- 2\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Therefore, the values of $b$ are:

$\frac{-3+ 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\textrm{ and }\frac{-3- 2\sqrt{3}}{2}$

My estimated answer for 1 is x=1.59 or x=-1.26 and my exact answer is (in word form) x= 1 plus or minus the square root of 73 over 6. my estimated answer for 2 is x=-0.34 or x=1.74 and my exact answer (in word form) is x= -7 plus or minus the square root of 109 over -10. I took a picture of my work and hopefully you can read it
