Answer:

Convert into same base

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert both sides into same bases and equate the powers to solve for the variable.

Example:

8^x = 32

You can either use logs to bring the power down or convert both sides into the same base

8 = 2³

8^x = (2³)^x = 2^(3x)

32 = 2⁵

2^(3x) = 2⁵

3x = 5

x = 5/3

x = 1⅔

The series formed by using exponential property we get : $\frac{1}{2} , \frac{1}{4} , \frac{1}{8} ,\frac{1}{16} ,\frac{1}{32} ,\frac{1}{64} ,\frac{1}{128} ,\frac{1}{256} ,\frac{1}{512} ,\frac{1}{1024} .$

What is Exponential Property?

Properties of Exponents : It is also called power or degree.
It tells us how many times the base will be multiplied by itself.
The properties of exponents or laws of exponents are wont to solve problems involving exponents.
These properties also are considered as major exponents rules to be followed while solving exponents.

Using exponential property on given values we get,

$2^1=1/ 2\\2^2=1/4\\2^3=1/8\\2^4= 1/16\\2^5= 1/32\\2^6 = 1/64\\2^7 = 1/128\\2^8 = 1/256\\2^9 = 1/512\\2^10 = 1/1024\ ...$

Complete series using exponent property is: $\frac{1}{2} , \frac{1}{4} , \frac{1}{8} ,\frac{1}{16} ,\frac{1}{32} ,\frac{1}{64} ,\frac{1}{128} ,\frac{1}{256} ,\frac{1}{512} ,\frac{1}{1024} ,$
