6^x+1=36^x-3
solve for x
6%5E%28x%2B1%29=36%5E%28x-3%29
6%5E%28x%2B1%29=%286%5E2%29%5E%28x-3%29
6%5E%28x%2B1%29=6%5E%282%28x-3%29%29
x%2B1=2%28x-3%29
x%2B1=2x-6
x-x%2B1=2x-x-6
1=x-6
1%2B6=x-6%2B6
7=x
Check:
6%5E%287%2B1%29=36%5E%287-3%29
6%5E8=36%5E4
1679616=1679616 We're right!!!
Happy Calculating!!!!
