Answer:

x=7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

8 ^ (x - 1 ) = 16

We need to rewrite 8 as 2^3  and 16 as 2^4

2^3 ^ (x - 1 ) = 2^4

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

2^(3(x-1)) = 2^4

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

3(x-1) = 4

Distribute

3x-3 = 4

Add 3 to each side

3x-3+3 = 4+3

3x = 7

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 7/3

x=7/3
