Question

Solve the exponential equation using the method of relating the bases by first rewriting the equation b^u=b^v

6^x2/36^x=216

Answer 1

well, 6^3 = 216, i remember that from a test I took a long time ago for some reason

Answer 2

:-)

Answer 3

so (-1,3)?

Answer 4

yep

Answer 5

6^(x^2)
------- = 6^3 ; unless I see it wrong, this is saying that 1 = 216
(6^2)^x)

Answer 6

crud, it says (-1,3) isn't right

Answer 7

really? 6^(x^2)/(36^x)=216 => 6^(x^2-2x)=216 => x = -1 or x = 3. is the problem written correctly?

Answer 8

\[6^{x2} \div36^x=216\]

tehm is correct, but if your working with a program its prolly wanting a specific format

Answer 10
