anonymous · Answer

No, it's not. It's 3/2 x

solomonzelman · Answer

If it isn't

$\LARGE\color{black}{    \frac{3}{2}x+\frac{7}{2}=2^x  }$

$\LARGE\color{black}{    \frac{3x+7}{2}=2^x  }$

$\LARGE\color{black}{    3x+7=2^{x+1}  }$

Oh, sorry tejasvir! I didn't see your question, I'm on the mobile app so it works so freakin slow. I basically did what Solomon did, but it took me like 5x longer to get the answer, I suck at math. But thanks guys! :)
