Answer:

${\boxed{\sf{x = \dfrac{1}{16}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

CONCEPT :

Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

Step 1 :- we will Identify the variables and constants in the given simple equation.
Step 2 :- then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.
Step 3 :- Transpose or shift the term on the other side to solve the equation further simplest.
Step 4 :- Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required that is mentioned in rule 1 or rule 2 of linear equations.
Step 5 :- Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation.

$\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}$

SOLUTION :

To solve this equation we will follow the given concept :

${:\implies{\tt{7x + \dfrac{1}{16} = \dfrac{1}{2}}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{7x = \dfrac{1}{2} - \dfrac{1}{16}}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{7x = \dfrac{(1 \times 8) -1}{16}}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{7x = \dfrac{(8) -1}{16}}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{7x = \dfrac{8 - 1}{16}}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{7x = \dfrac{7}{16}}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{x = \dfrac{7}{16} \times \dfrac{1}{7} }}}$

${:\implies{\tt{x = \dfrac{\cancel{7}}{16} \times \dfrac{1}{ \cancel{7}}}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{x = \dfrac{1}{16} \times 1}}}$

${:\implies{\tt{x = \dfrac{1}{16}}}}$

${ \star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\red{x = \dfrac{1}{16}}}}}}}$

Hence, the value of x is 1/16.

Answer with explanation:

Using following law of indices

$1.x^a \times x^b=x^{a+b}\\\\2. (x^m)^n=x^{mn}\\\\ 3. x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}\\\\4. \frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}$

$1.5^{-1}\times 3^{-2}=\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{1}{3^2}\\\\=\frac{1}{5\times9}\\\\=\frac{1}{45}\\\\2. \frac{mn^{-4}}{p^0*q^{-2}}=\frac{mq^2}{n^4}\\\\ 3.0.0042=4.2\times 10^3\\\\4.6.12 \times 10^3=6.12 \times 1000=6120\\\\ 5.0.5 \times(8\times10^5})=\frac{1}{2}\times8 \times 10^5=4\times 10^5\\\\6. (9 \times 10^3)^2=9^2 \times (10^3)^2=81 \times 10^6\\\\7.( \frac{1}{2}a^{-4}\times b^2 )_{a=-2,b=4}{\text{or}}( \frac{1}{2}a^{4}\times b^{-2} )_{a=-2,b=4}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{-4}\times(4)^2{\text{or}}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{4}\times(4)^{-2}=\frac{16}{2\times16}=\frac{1}{2}$

$9. (4\times x\times y^2)^3\times (xy)^5=4^3\times x^3\times (y^2)^3\times x^5 \times y^5\\\\=64\times x^{3+5}\times y^{5+6}\\\\=64x^8y^{11}\\\\10.(2\times t^3)^3(0.4\times r)^2=2^3 \times (t^3)^3\times (0.4)^2 \times r^2=8\times t^9 \times 0.16 \times r^2=1.28r^2t^9$
