Solution

The correct option is C 2,72
Given equation is: 4x+21x+3=42x+1
4(x+3)1(x+2)(x+2)(x+3)=42x+1
4x+12x2(x+2)(x+3)=42x+1
3x+10(x+2)(x+3)=42x+1
(3x+10)(2x+1)=4(x+2)(x+3)
6x2+23x+10=4(x2+5x+6)
2x2+3x14=0
2x24x+7x14=0
2x(x2)+7(x2)=0
(x2)(2x+7)=0
x2=0 and 2x+7=0
x=2 and x=72
Hence, x=72,2 are the required solutions.
