\n" ); document.write( "2^(x-1)=8
\n" ); document.write( "
\"2%5E%28x+-+1%29+=+8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%5E%28x+-+1%29+=+2%5E3\" ------ Converting 8 to \"2%5E3\"
\n" ); document.write( "x - 1 = 3 ------- Bases are equal, and so are their exponents
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3 + 1, or \"highlight_green%28x+=+4%29\" \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
