Solve for x: 125^(3x+7)=25^(5x−11)

x = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

125^(3x+7)=25^(5x−11)

Rewriting the bases as powers of 5

125 = 5^3  and 25 = 5^2

5^3 ^ (3x+7) = 5^2^(5x-11)

We know a^b^c = a^ (b*c)

5^(3 * (3x+7)) = 5^(2*(5x-11))

Distribute

5^(9x+21) = 5^(10x-22)

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

9x+21 = 10x-22

Subtract 9x from each side

9x+21 -9x = 10x-9x-22

21 = x-22

Add 22 to each side

21+22 = x-22+22

43 = x

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17

answer: 0.64
