Solve for X : 22x+1 = 8 - Mathematics

Solve for x : 2^2x+1 = 8

Sum

2^2x+1 = 8
⇒ 2^2x+1 = 2³
We know that if bases are equal, the powers are equal
⇒ 2x + 1 = 3
⇒ 2x = 3 - 1
⇒ 2x = 2
⇒ x = `2/2`
⇒ x = 1

Find x, if : 4^2x = `1/32`

Solve : `[3^x]^2` : 3x = 9 : 1

Solve for x: `4^(x-1) × (0.5)^(3 - 2x) = (1/8)^-x`

If 2^x = 4^y = 8^z and `1/(2x) + 1/(4y) + 1/(8z) = 4` , find the value of x.

Solve for x:
2^2x+3 - 9 x 2^x+ 1 = 0

Solve for x:
2^2x + 2^{x +2} - 4 x 2³ = 0

If a = `2^(1/3) - 2^((-1)/3)`, prove that 2a³ + 6a = 3

If `root(x)("a") = root(y)("b") = root(z)("c")` and abc = 1, prove that x + y + z = 0

If 2250 = 2^a. 3^b. 5^c, find a, b and c. Hence, calculate the value of 3^a x 2^-b x 5^-c.

Find the value of 'a' and 'b' if:

`(sqrt243)^"a" ÷ 3^("b" + 1)` = 1 and `27^"b" - 81^(4 -"a"/2)` = 0
