3 raise to the power of 4x-1=8 show workings.

3 answers

I can see this working if you meant:

3^(4x) - 1 = 8
3^(4x) = 9
3^(4x) = 3^2

can you predict my next step ?
3raise to the power of 4x-1=8 is therefore equal to 3raise to the power of 3x =2 raise to the power of 3, 3 raise to the power of x =2 log3 raise to the power of 2=x
