Subtract 3 both the sides first and tell me what did you get ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2^x = 4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes..
Now 4 can be written as : \(2^2\):
\[\large 2^x = 2^2\]
can you find x from here ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Remember: Bases are same so powers must be equal..

What you don't know..??
You are right..

Sometimes it helps to translate the math symbols into English sentences:
"2^x = 4"
is saying
"Two raised to what power equals four?"
Do you know the powers of two? (two to the first power = ___ , two to the second power = ... etc.?)

\[\large a^x = a^y \implies x = y\]
OpenStudy (shaik0124):
bcoz there is a property that when bases are equal then exponents will b equal so x=2
