Question 878786: Could someone help with this problem:
Find the exact solution, and a two-decimal-place approximation of the solution, when appropriate:
4^(2x+3) = 5^(x-2)
The book says that the answer is -(ln 1600/ ln (16/5)) which is approximately -6.3
Could you show me the steps at how that answer was derived because I keep getting a different answer.
Thank you. Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the exact solution, and a two-decimal-place approximation of the solution, when appropriate:
