2(3x-1)=3(x+1)
6x-2=3x+1
3x=3
x=1
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
because 4=2 on exponent 2
and 8 = 2 on exponent 3
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
this is understandably ?

thank you

can you help me mo
re i cant understand this
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(4/9)^(2x-3) = (8/27) ^(x-1)
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
so write 4/9 = (2/3) on exponent 2 and 8/27 = (2/3) on exponent 3 and hence will get 2(2x-3)=3(x-1)
4x-6=3x-3
x=3
