Answer:

x= 6 1/2 or 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4^x-5 =8

2^2(x-5) =2^3

since the base is equal, the powers are equal

2(x-5) = 3

2x - 10 = 3

2x = 3 + 10

2x = 13

2x/2 = 13/2

x = 6 1/2 or 6.5

2(x-5) = 3

x-5 = 3/2

x = 13/2 or 6½

In 14 the perimeter of the figure Is given. find the length of the indicated side
olga2289 [7]

3x - 7

The perimeter is the sum of all 3 sides of the triangle

To find the third side subtract the sum of the 2 known sides from the perimeter

x + 3 + 2x + 4 = 3x + 7

third side = 6x - (3x + 7 ) = 6x - 3x - 7 = 3x - 7
