H^-16/h^x=1/h^24 can someone help me please
Basile [38]

Given:

Consider the equation is

\dfrac{h^{16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

\dfrac{h^{-16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}

Using properties of exponents, we get

h^{-16-x}=h^{-24}       [\because \dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n},a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}]

On comparing both sides, we get

-16-x=-24

Add 16 on both sides.

-x=-24+16

-x=-8

Multiply both sides by -1.

x=8

Therefore, the value of x is 8.
