I need help badly in couple of questions, someone please help!!
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
is the problem
\[\Large 4^{2x}+3=1\]
OR
is it
\[\Large 4^{2x+3}=1\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah that second one
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
Hint:
\[\Large 4^{2x+3}=1\]
\[\Large 4^{2x+3}=4^0\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so we are not using that 1?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
we are, just a different form of it
4^0 is the same as 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
the bases are the same (4)
so the exponents must be the same
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so
2x + 3 = 0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup i Got the answer thanks :)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
\[10^{-3x}\times10^{x}=\frac{ 1 }{ 10 }\]
\[10^{-3x}\times10^{x}=10^{-1}\]
\[10^{-3x+x}=10^{-1}\]
I'll let you finish
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
what do you get
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[x=\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I need help with couple more pleaseeee!!

\[64\times16^{-3x}=16^{3x-2}\]
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
-3x + x = -1
-2x = -1
x = 1/2
good
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
\[64\times16^{-3x}=16^{3x-2}\]
\[(4^3)\times(4^2)^{-3x}=(4^2)^{3x-2}\]
\[(4^3)\times4^{2(-3x)}=(4)^{2(3x-2)}\]
\[(4^3)\times4^{-6x}=(4)^{6x-4}\]
\[4^{3+(-6x)}=(4)^{6x-4}\]
\[4^{3-6x}=(4)^{6x-4}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got an answer: \[x=\frac{ 7 }{ 12 }\]

oh I got that one \[-\frac{ 3 }{ 4 }\]
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
good, that's correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\left(\begin{matrix}1 \\ 6\end{matrix}\right)^{3x+2}\times216^{3x}=\frac{ 1 }{ 216 }\]
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
and what did you get

I m having trouble starting it but still trying
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
\[\Large \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^{3x+2}\times216^{3x}=\frac{ 1 }{ 216 }\]
\[\Large \left(6^{-1}\right)^{3x+2}\times(6^3)^{3x}=6^{-3}\]
\[\Large \left(6\right)^{-(3x+2)}\times(6)^{9x}=6^{-3}\]
\[\Large 6^{-(3x+2)+9x}=6^{-3}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh I only messed up with one sign
