The value of x that will satisfy the equation is x=-1.

We have given that,

$\left|x-1\right|=\left|x+3\right|$

We have to solve the above inequality

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

Inequality is a relation that makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers or other mathematical expressions.

Find the positive and negative intervals

$x < -3,\:\:-3\le \:x < 1,\:\:x\ge \:1$

Solve the inequality for each interval

$x < -3,\:\:-3\le \:x < 1,\:\:x\ge \:1$

$\mathrm{No\:Solution}\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x=-1$

Therefore we get,

$x=-1$

Answer:

A) $5^3*5^{-4}=5^{3-4}=5^{-1}=\frac{1}{5}$ (Yes. It has a value between zero and one.)

B) $\frac{3^5}{3^{-6}}=3^{5-\left(-6\right)}=3^{5+6}=3^{11}=177147$ (No. It does not have a value between zero and one.)

C) $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^3* \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^2=\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{3+2}=\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^5=\frac{1^5}{4^5}=\frac{1}{1024}$ . (Yes. It has a value between zero and one.)

D) $\frac{\left(-7\right)^5}{\left(-7\right)^7}=\left(-7\right)^{5-7}=\left(-7\right)^{-2}=\frac{1}{\left(-7\right)^2}=\frac{1}{49}$ (Yes. It has a value between zero and one.)
