Find the value of x so that (–2)3 × (–2)–6 = (–2)2x 1

योग

उत्तर

We have (–2)3 × (–2)–6 = (–2)2x 1

Using law of exponents, am × an = (a)m + n  ...[∵ a is non-zero integer]

Then, (–2)3 × (–2)–6 = (–2)2x 1

⇒ (–2)3 6 = (–2)2x 1

⇒ (–2)–3 = (–2)2x 1

On comparing both sides, we get

–3 = 2x – 1

⇒ 2x = –2

⇒ x = –1
