64^(x-4)=4^2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[64^{(x-4)}=4^{2x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[4^{3(x-4)}=4^{2x}\] \[3(x-4)=2x\] \[3x-12=2x\] from here solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@REMAINDER How did you get the 3?

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):

Because 4^3 = 64

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But thats a 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wait nevermind

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):

he simply changed 64 into a base of 4 so that the exponents would have to equal each other.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so the final answer is 12=x?

OpenStudy (cgreenwade2000):

Go back to the original equation and substitute 12 for x and see if it is the right answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep :)
