Hi,

1)Assuming the x was ommitted after the -2 

3x^2-2x+7=0  what is being done here..is that the square has been completed:

3(x^2 - 2/3x + 1/9  -1/9) + 7 = 0

3(x^2 - 2/3x + 1/9)+ 3*(-1/9) + 7 = 0

3(x-1/3)^2 - 1/3 + 7 = 0

3(x-1/3)^2  = -20/3

(x-1/3)^2  = -20/9



2)  

    y=b^x and b>1

 

Answer would be other according to the properties of logarithms
