This is false because any number divided by 0 is undefined.

I'm going to take a guess at this and say what you meant is 2401 = 7^(6 - 2x)
Step One
Find out the power of 7 that will equal 2401.
You could do it like this.
7^y = 2401 and just guess at some values.
y 7^y
1 7
2 49
3 7 * 7 * 7 = 343
4 7 * 7 * 7 * 7 = 2401 So the answer is 4
7^4 = 2401
Step 2
Equate the powers.
2401 = 7^(6 - 2x)
7^4 = 7^ (6 - 2x)
4 = 6 - 2x Subtract 6 from both sides.
4 - 6 = - 2x
-2 = - 2x divide by - 2
-2/-2 = x
x = 1 <<<<<<<<<<<<<answer
Use algebra to set up 2 equations.
Assign c as number of tickets for CATS and w for number of tickets of WICKED
c + w = 2700
c / w = 7 / 11
Then solve for one of them in the first equation
c = 2700 - w
Then put this value for c into the 2nd equation
(2700 - w) / w = 7 / 11
Now cross multiply the numerator by denominator of both numerator and denominator pairs
7w = 11 x (2700 - w)
7w = 29700 - 11w
Now solve for w
7w = 26700 - 11w
Add +11w to both sides
18w = 29700
Now divide by 18 on both sides
w = 1650
Then c is the remainder of that ... 2700 - 1650 = 1050
You can also check because 7 / 11 = 1050 / 1650
