We need to compare the power of both sides. (aa)b= aa x b |
[{(2/3)3}(2x+3)](-3/4) = [{(2/3)2/3}3x+7](-6/5) As we can see on both sides base number is name 2/3 so we can easily compare power of both sides. 3(2x+3)(-3/4) = (2/3)(3x+7)(-6/5) 9(2x+3)/4 = 4(3x+7)/5 45(2x+3)= 16(3x+7) 90x + 135 = 48x + 112 90x - 48x = 112 - 135 42x = -23 And we need to find the value of √(2 – 42x) = √{2 – (-23)} = √2+23 = √25 = 5 So, the value of √(2 – 42x) is 5. |
