Answer 1

Given the following equation:

`4^x=9`

You can identify that the left side of the equation has this expression:

`4^x`

Where the base is:

`4`

And the exponent is a variable:

`x`

By definition, the equations whose variables are contained in the exponents, are called "Exponential Equations".

Hence, the answer is: Option a.
