Answer:
The value of x is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
(3/5)³ x (3/5) raised to -6 = (3/5) raised to 2x-1
Using indices,
'a' raised to m x 'a' raised n = 'a' raised to (m+n)
(3/5) raised to {3+(-6)}
= (3/5) raised to (3-6)
= (3/5) raised to -3
(3/5) raised to -3 = (3/5) raised to 2x-1
Using indices,
If 'a' raised to m = 'a' raised to n
then m = n
Therefore,
-3 = 2x-1
2x -3+1
2x = -2
x = -2/2
x = -1
