Respuesta :
Make 27 into 3^3, then since the bases are the same, solve (x-1) = 3. The answer is 4.
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
For the given equation
[tex]3^(x-1)=27[/tex]
To find the value of x which is in power of base 3, make the base of R.H.S also 3
Making 27 in the power of three will be written as: 27= [tex]3^3[/tex]
So,
[tex]3^(x-1)=3^3[/tex]
Now, we have same base on both the sides, so we can equate their powers of R.H.S and L.H.S.
[tex]x-1=3\\x=3-1\\x=2[/tex]
So, for the equation, the value of x is 2
