Question

If 22x = 23, what is the value of x?
-1/2
-1/4
1/4
no solution

Answer 1

Answer:
`x=(23)/(22)`≈
`1.04`

Explanation:

You need to solve for the variable "x" to find its value.

To solve for "x" you need to apply the Division property of equality. This states that:

`If\ a=b\ then\ (a)/(c)=(b)/(c)`

Then, knowing this, you can divide both sides of the equation by 22. Therefore, you get that the value of "x" is the following:

`(22x)/(22)=(23)/(22)`

`x=(23)/(22)`

`x`≈
`1.04`
