The answer I got was x= 21/2
Answer:
15000×5/100=100/100x
150×5=x
750=x
Assessed value that you have to pay for a year is Rs.750.00

Have a great day!
Answer:
use logarithms
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...
a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents
(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs
but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...
x +3 = b^(x -6)
There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.
In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.
1) Base
2) Exponent
3) Metric system
-2(x + 3) = 8
Multiply -2 with x and 3
-2x -6 = 8
Now add 6 to both sides
-2x -6 = 8
+6 +8
-2x = 16
Lastly divide -2 from both sides to find x
-2x = 16
—— —-
-2x -2x
X = -8
