Find the value of $\frac{5 x+1}{3}$, if $25^{4 x-3}=5^{6 x+8}$
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
$25^{4 x-3}=5^{6 x+8}$
= $5^{8 x-6}=5^{6 x+8}$
If the base is same of any multiple terms then we can put powers equal.
So, 8 x-6 = 6 x+8
= 2x = 14
x = 7
Put the value of x in $\frac{5 x+1}{3}$
= $\frac{5 (7)+1}{3}$ = 12
