1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the solutions of several equations. The equations are:
a) 2x+3=3+3x2x + 3 = -3 + 3x
b) 23x+54\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{5}{4}
c) (2x3)(4+2x)=0(2x - 3)(4 + 2x) = 0
d) x25xx^2 - 5x
e) x2+2x+1=0x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0
f) x2+4x^2 + 4

2. Solution Steps

a) 2x+3=3+3x2x + 3 = -3 + 3x
Subtract 2x2x from both sides:
3=3+x3 = -3 + x
Add 3 to both sides:
6=x6 = x
x=6x = 6
b) This equation is incomplete. It needs to be set equal to something. Without knowing what it equals, we cannot solve the equation. We assume it should have been =0= 0. So the question becomes 23x+54=0\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{5}{4} = 0
Subtract 54\frac{5}{4} from both sides:
23x=54\frac{2}{3}x = -\frac{5}{4}
Multiply both sides by 32\frac{3}{2}:
x=5432x = -\frac{5}{4} \cdot \frac{3}{2}
x=158x = -\frac{15}{8}
c) (2x3)(4+2x)=0(2x - 3)(4 + 2x) = 0
If the product of two factors is zero, then at least one of the factors must be zero.
2x3=02x - 3 = 0 or 4+2x=04 + 2x = 0
2x=32x = 3 or 2x=42x = -4
x=32x = \frac{3}{2} or x=2x = -2
d) x25x=0x^2 - 5x = 0
Factor out xx:
x(x5)=0x(x - 5) = 0
x=0x = 0 or x5=0x - 5 = 0
x=0x = 0 or x=5x = 5
e) x2+2x+1=0x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0
This is a perfect square trinomial:
(x+1)2=0(x + 1)^2 = 0
x+1=0x + 1 = 0
x=1x = -1
f) x2+4=0x^2 + 4 = 0
x2=4x^2 = -4
x=±4x = \pm \sqrt{-4}
x=±2ix = \pm 2i

3. Final Answer

a) x=6x = 6
b) x=158x = -\frac{15}{8}
c) x=32,2x = \frac{3}{2}, -2
d) x=0,5x = 0, 5
e) x=1x = -1
f) x=2i,2ix = 2i, -2i
