Question

What is x: 16 raised by 2x-1 = 8 raised by x+2

Answer 1

Answer:

hey bro your answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

16 ^(2x-1)  =  8^(x+2)

2^(8x-4)    =  2^(3x+6)

when bases are same the powers can be equated in an exponential equation

so 8x - 4 = 3x + 6

  8x - 3x = 6 + 4  

       5x    =  10

          x   = 2

Answer 2

Answer:

2 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

16^(2x-1)=8^(x+2)

2^(8x-4)=2^(3x+6)

when we have equal base,we can equate the power

8x-4=3x+6

8x-3x=6+4

5x=10

x=10/5

x=2
