4=b^{-2}

4 = b^{- 2}

b = \frac{1}{2}, b = - \frac{1}{2}

Solution steps

4 = b^{- 2}

Refine

4 = \frac{1}{b ^{2}}

Multiply both sides by

b^{2}

4 b^{2} = 1

Solve

4 b^{2} = 1 : b = \frac{1}{2}, b = - \frac{1}{2}

b = \frac{1}{2}, b = - \frac{1}{2}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

b = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

b = \frac{1}{2}, b = - \frac{1}{2}

\frac{3}{x - 6} = \frac{1}{x}

t, I = \frac{q}{t}

20 x - 9 = \frac{20}{x}

\frac{1}{x} = 0.4
