Okay

[@ClashOfClans252]

Was the whole factoring part after finding y=5 necessary

[@Qbslogic]

Definitely. Because 3⁰ equations have 3 possible roots and we need to find the remaining 2 roots.

Isn't the anwer 5?

[@Qbslogic]

Nope. Because we let y= 2^x So if y=5, then 2^x=5 now from that we need to find the value of x.
