उत्तर
`bb(1/64)`
Explanation:
Given equation is `9x^2 + 3/4x - sqrt(2)` = 0
`(3x)^2 + 1/4 (3x) - sqrt(2)` = 0
On putting 3x = y,
We have `y^2 + 1/4y - sqrt(2)` = 0
`y^2 + 1/4y + (1/8)^2 - (1/8)^2 - sqrt(2)` = 0
`(y + 1/8)^2 = 1/64 + sqrt(2)`
`(y + 1/8)^2 = (1 + 64 sqrt(2))/64`
Thus, `1/64` must be added and subtracted to solve the given equation.
