Use properties of exponents to solve:
\n" ); document.write( "3^(x-2)81^(x)=(1/3)^(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "81 = 3^4
\n" ); document.write( "1/3 = 3^-1
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%5E%28x-2%2981%5E%28x%29=%281%2F3%29%5E%28x-3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%5E%28x-2%293%5E%284x%29=+3%5E%283-x%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%5E%285x-2%29+=+3%5E%283-x%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "5x-2 = 3-x
\n" ); document.write( "6x = 5
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5/6
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
