Answer 14

Is it
9x or 3^(2x) ????

Answer 15

It's 3^2x

Answer 16

so 9x ?????

Answer 17

(x-2)/3 = 27 / (x-2) (<-- better way of writing this)

cross-multiply!!

(x-2)*(x-2) = 27 * 3
you could multiply out both sides and solve the quadratic equation but this one seems clear without it...
(x-2) squared = 9 squared !!!
so (x-2) = + 9 or -9
so x = 11 or -7


how about this?
