1. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve 2x=162^x=16.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is x=4x=4.

  1. Identify the exponential or logarithmic structure: Determine the base, exponent, logarithm, growth factor, decay factor, or graph feature involved.
  2. Apply the relationship: Since 16 = 2^4, equal bases give x = 4.
  3. Check the result: The correct answer is x=4x=4.

Since 16 = 2^4, equal bases give x = 4.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve 3x+1=273^{x+1}=27.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is x=2x=2.

  1. Identify the exponential or logarithmic structure: Determine the base, exponent, logarithm, growth factor, decay factor, or graph feature involved.
  2. Apply the relationship: Rewrite 27 as 3^3, so x + 1 = 3 and x = 2.
  3. Check the result: The correct answer is x=2x=2.

Rewrite 27 as 3^3, so x + 1 = 3 and x = 2.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve 52x=1255^{2x}=125.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is x=32x=\frac{3}{2}.

  1. Identify the exponential or logarithmic structure: Determine the base, exponent, logarithm, growth factor, decay factor, or graph feature involved.

  3. Check the result: The correct answer is x=32x=\frac{3}{2}.

Rewrite 125 as 5^3: 2x = 3, so x = 3/2.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve 4x=84^x=8.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is x=32x=\frac{3}{2}.

  1. Identify the exponential or logarithmic structure: Determine the base, exponent, logarithm, growth factor, decay factor, or graph feature involved.
  2. Apply the relationship: Write 4^x as 2^(2x) and 8 as 2^3. Then 2x = 3, so x = 3/2.
  3. Check the result: The correct answer is x=32x=\frac{3}{2}.

Write 4^x as 2^(2x) and 8 as 2^3. Then 2x = 3, so x = 3/2.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

Solve 10x=0.00110^x=0.001.

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is x=−3x=-3.

  1. Identify the exponential or logarithmic structure: Determine the base, exponent, logarithm, growth factor, decay factor, or graph feature involved.
  2. Apply the relationship: Because 0.001 = 10^(-3), x = -3.
  3. Check the result: The correct answer is x=−3x=-3.

Because 0.001 = 10^(-3), x = -3.

6. QuestionMultiple choice
