Answer:
x = - 4, x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 36 = 5x ( subtract 5x from both sides )
x² - 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 9)(x + 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
The answer to your question is 3 to the 3rd power and 5 to the 2nd power. The reason why that's your answer is because there are three 3s so instead of doing 3*3*3 you can just simply do 3 to the 3rd power and do the same thing to the 5. You can see that there are two fives so you do 5 to the 2nd power.
Hope this helps:)
