Question 151581: Could you please help me solve this equation for the ordered pair? I can come up with the first part of the answer, but he second part of the pair I can't get.
y=2^(5x+1)
y=4^(-x)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=2%5E%285x%2B1%29
y=4%5E%28-x%29
2%5E%285X%2B1%29+=+4%5E%28-x%29
2%5E%285x%2B1%29+=+%282%5E2%29%5E%28-x%29
2%5E%285x%2B1%29+=+2%5E%28-2x%29
%285x%2B1%29+=+-2x
7x+=+-1
x+=+-1%2F7
