8^4x/32^x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know the answer is 2^7x but I don't understand how to get there.?.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, look at the problem first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first step i believe is do the squares (srry, don't know the correct term) so 8^4=4096 so now the problem is: 4096x/32^x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks. But I tried that and the x is an exponent as well. 8^4^x. 8 to the 4thX 8 to the 4x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really? oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok heres the deal, lets start over ok first you have \[\frac{ 8^{4x} }{ 32^x }\] is this right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes Reduces to 2^7x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just a second let me write it all out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

see if you can read this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i used an equation editor to write those out for you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you cannot read that try this one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're a champ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Did it help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. Now I see the process. Thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):
