What values of b satisfy 4(3b + 2)2 = 64?

Ab = 2/3 and b = –2

Bb = 2 and b = 10/3

Cb = 2/3 and b = 3

Db = 2 and b = -10/3

Given the equation 4(3b + 2)² = 64,
dividing both sides of the equation by 4, we have

(3b + 2)² = 16 and getting the square root of both sides,

(3b + 2) = 4 and (3b + 2) = -4

We can solve for b for each equation and have

3b = 2 | 3b = -6
b = 2/3 | b = -2

Therefore, the values of b are 2/3 and -2 and from the choices, the answer is A: b = 2/3 and b = -2.
