True/False

A structural engineer is modeling the stress on a bridge support using the equation 2(x2)2+3=57{}2(x - 2)^2 + 3 = 57. True or False: According to the standard solution process for this equation, after the squared binomial is isolated and the square root property is applied, the radical 27\sqrt{27} is simplified to 33{}3\sqrt{3}, ultimately leading to the two solutions x=2+33x = 2 + 3\sqrt{3} and x=233x = 2 - 3\sqrt{3}.
