Question

Find the value of x in the following:

`2^(5x)div2x=root5(2^20)`

Solution

Given `2^(5x)div2x=root5(2^20)`

By using rational exponents `a^m/a^n=a^(m-n)` we get,

`2^(5x-x)=2^(20xx1/5)`

`2^(5x-x)=2^4`

On equating the exponents we get,

5x - x = 4

4x = 4

x = 4/4

x = 1

The value of x = 1
