Just follow the rules of exponents to simplify the left side to \n" ); document.write( "5^[(1-9/10)/5] = 5^(1/50) \n" ); document.write( "The right side is 5^(x+2) \n" ); document.write( "Equate 5^(1/50) = 5^(x+2) yields \n" ); document.write( "x+2 = 1/50 \n" ); document.write( "x = 1/50 - 2 \n" ); document.write( "x = -99/50 \n" ); document.write( "Always (if possible) check your answer by placing your answer into the ORIGINAL equation to see if you get an agreement. \n" ); document.write( "LS = 5^(1/50) as above \n" ); document.write( "RS = 5^(x+2) \n" ); document.write( "RS = 5^[(-99/50)+2] \n" ); document.write( "RS = 5^[(-99+100)/50] \n" ); document.write( "RS = 5^(1/50) \n" ); document.write( "LS = RS \n" ); document.write( "Your answer is x = -99/50 \n" ); document.write( " |
