i have been stuck on this for over an hour please can i get some help i will give a medal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y=2^{-x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and \[y=4^{x+3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@kale01

OpenStudy (anonymous):

intersect are the solutions of the equation \[2^{-x} =4^{x+3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you think you can help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@noneyabusiness would you happen to know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry I have no idea. could you insert a graph? I am a visual person

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there isnt a graph @noneyabusiness

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can't help then but maybe @Xmoses1 or @C.A.M can. good luck!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks @noneyabusiness

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@clara.university

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummm let me figure it out giveme a sec k

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

I dont really understand the question lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part A: Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = 2^{-x} and y = 4^{x + 3} intersect are the solutions of the equation 2^{-x }= 4^{x + 3}. that is all i have on the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh now i see lol

OpenStudy (samgrace):

If the two functions are mapped in the same domain then you can solve them simultaneously

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

told you she could help!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i understand that part of it im strugliing to find the variable

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or he

OpenStudy (anonymous):
