Pixel:

ik that

Pixel:

then simplify left exponents

Angle:

ok

Pixel:

3^5x-9=3^-2

Pixel:

3 x -1 = -3 x 2 = -6 + 8 = 2*

Pixel:

its 2 sorry

Pixel:

not -2

Angle:

I am confused by what you are doing

Pixel:

noit is -2

Pixel:

im multiplying eponents on left side

Pixel:

3^3(-1)(2x-8)

Pixel:

-3(6x-24)

Pixel:

i keep reading it wrong

Pixel:

-6x+24

Angle:

left: \(\large 3^{5x-9}\) right: \(\large 3^{-6x + 24}\) then just solve 5x - 9 = -6x + 24

Pixel:

3^5x-9=3^6x+24

Pixel:

+6

Pixel:

+6x*

Angle:

it's a negative 6x

Pixel:

ik

Pixel:

im getting rid of the x on the left side

Angle:

ohhhh yes :)

Pixel:

11x-9=-24

Pixel:

+9

Pixel:

11x=-15

Pixel:

/11

Pixel:

x=-15/11

Angle:

it's a positive 24 so 24 + 9 = 33

Pixel:

x = 33/11

Angle:

yes

Pixel:

or 3/1

Angle:
