A student's first step in solving the
equation 2^2x + 1 = 8 was to rewrite
8 as 2^3. Select all reasonable options for the next step in the solution. Take the cube root of both sides.
. Rewrite the equation as
2x + 1 = 2.
Rewrite the equation as
2x + 1 = 3.
Take the logarithm base 2 of both sides.
Take the logarithm base 3 of both sides.
The reasonable options for the next step in the solution are:
1. Take the logarithm base 2 of both sides.
2. Rewrite the equation as 2x + 1 = 3.
