Answer:
We use the power rule of exponents to find out that both sides of the equation equal 3^20 (or 3486784401).
Step-by-step explanation:
For this example, we can just use a calculator and find out that both (3^5)^4 and (3^4)^5 are the same value. But how do we know this algebraically?
When dealing with exponents, we must have a good understanding of the properties of exponents before doing any calculations.
For this example, I recognize that the power rule of exponents is being used:

So let's apply this rule to the given equation.
(3^5)^4 = (3^4)^5
3^(5*4) = 3^(4*5)
3^20 = 3^20
Now we know both sides of the equation equal 3^20 (or 3486784401).

AB + BC = AC
AB = 2(x + 1)
BC = 3x + 1
AC = 4(x + 2)
Substitute and Solve
AB + BC = AC
2(x + 1) + 3x + 1 = 4(x + 2) Remove the brackets on the left
2x + 2 + 3x + 1 = 4(x + 2) Collect the like terms on the left
5x + 3 = 4(x + 2) Remove the brackets on the right.
5x + 3 = 4x + 8 Subtract 4x from both sides.
5x - 4x + 3 = 8
x + 3 = 8 Subtract 3 from both sides
x =8 - 3
x = 5

AB=2(5 + 1) = 2 * 6 = 12
BC = 3x + 1 = 3*5 + 1 = 15 + 1 = 16
AC = 4(5 + 2) = 4*7 = 28
