Solve the Exponential Equation by Using the Property That Bx $$4 ^ { 1 + x } = \left( \frac { 1 } { 2 } \right) ^ { 9 - x }$$

question 77

Short Answer

Solve the exponential equation by using the property that bx = by implies x = y, for b > 0 and b≠ 1. $$4 ^ { 1 + x } = \left( \frac { 1 } { 2 } \right) ^ { 9 - x }$$
