Answer:

x=-2

Explanation:

216=6^(4x+11)


216=6^(4x+11)

To solve for x , we need to make same base on both sides

Write 216 in exponential form

216= 6 times 6 times 6 = 6^3


6^3=6^(4x+11)

Both sides have same base 6. So we make the exponents equal and solve for x


3=4x+11

subtract 11 on both sides


-8=4x

Divide both sides by 4


-2=x
