Given:
Consider the given equation is:

To find:
The missing exponent.
Solution:
Let x be the missing exponent. Then the given equation can be written as

It can be rewritten as:

![[\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cbecause%20a%5Ema%5En%3Da%5E%7Bm%2Bn%7D%5D)
On comparing the coefficient of m, we get



Therefore, the value of the missing exponent is 8. So, the complete equation is
.
By replacing you get:
5*7-2*11+3*(-1) = 35-22-3= 10
so the answer is 10.
