If 2^2x = 2^3what is the value of x?

X=1 ...

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

IF the (^) is symbolizing exponents than it works like this:

exponents is just the 'base' or larger number multiplied by itself for example 2^3 would be 2*2*2.

and 2*2*2=8

(2^2x=8)

2^2 would be be equivalent to 2*2 which equals 4.

(4x=8)

that mean we need to figure out what multipled by 4 gets 8.

the reason its multiplied is because when x is written next to a number like that it means it gets multiplied to the other number.

now, if 2*2*2=8 and 2*2=4 that means 4*2=8 which makes x 2

therefore x=2

proof

2^2 (2) = 2^3

2^2 (2) = 8

4 (2) = 8

8=8
