9^1/3 * 3^x = 27^4/5

Rewrite 9 as 3^2

(3^2)^1/3 * 3^x = 27^4/5

Multiply the exponents in the first term:

3^2/3 * 3^x = 27^4/5

Use power rule to combine exponents:

3^(2/3 +x) = 27^4/5

Rewrite the 2nd term:

3^(2/3 +x) = (3^3)^4/5

Set the exponents only to equal:

2/3 + x = 3(4/5)

Solve for x:

simplify the right side:

2/3 + x = 12/5

Subtract 2/3 from both sides:

x = 26/15
