Question

Solve the following exponential equation.

Answer 1

\[5^{x+2} - 5^{x}\]

Answer 2

is it equal to zero?

Answer 3

or the sign in the middle is 0 ?

Answer 4

=24 woops, thought that was written

Answer 5

\[5^{x+2} -5^{x} = 24\]

Answer 6

good,
use the property that
\(\huge x^{m+n} = x^m \times x^n\)
so what about
5^(x+2) = ... ?

Answer 7

5^x X 5^2

Answer 8

if you mean
\(5^x 5^2\)
then yes.
so,
\(25(5)^x- 5^x =25 \\ 24(5)^x =24\)
can you solve further ? its pretty simple from here
