QUESTION 7 - 1 POINT Solve: $3^{x+4}=6^{x}$. Enter an exact answer or round your answer to the nearest tenth. Provide your answer below: \[ x= \] Content attibution

Solution

Step 1 :Take the natural logarithm (ln) of both sides of the equation $3^{x+4}=6^{x}$ to simplify it. The properties of logarithms allow us to bring down the exponents.

Step 2 :Rewrite the equation as $x+4\ln(3)=x\ln(6)$.

Step 3 :Solve for x to get $x=\frac{4\ln(3)}{\ln(2)}$.

Step 4 :Calculate the numerical value of this expression to get approximately 6.33985000288462.

Step 5 :Round this value to the nearest tenth to get 6.3.

Step 6 :The solution to the equation $3^{x+4}=6^{x}$, rounded to the nearest tenth, is \(x=\boxed{6.3}\).
