  • X = - 2

Explanation:


\large{ \longrightarrow \sf{\: ( (5)/(3) ) {}^( - 5) * ( (5)/(3) ) {}^( - 11) = ( (5)/(3) ) {}^(8x) }}


\:


\large{ \implies \: \sf{ ( (5)/(3) ) {}^( - 5 - 11) = ( (5)/(3) ) {}^(8x) }}


\:


\large \implies \: \sf{( (5)/(3) ) {}^( - 16) = ( (5)/(3) ) {}^(8x) }


\:


\large{\implies \: \sf{8x = - 16}}


\:


\large \implies \: \sf{ x = - (16)/(8) }


\:


\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \implies \: \boxed{ \bf{ \pink{x } \blue{= } \purple{ - }\green{2}}}

Answer:

Value of x is -2.

Explanation:

Note:

Product of Powers Property: When you have the same base raised to different exponents and they are multiplied together, you can add the exponents.

In mathematical notation, it can be expressed as:


\sf a^m * a^n = a^(m + n)

For the Question:

Given expression:


\sf \left((5)/(3)\right)^(-5) * \left((5)/(3)\right)^(-11) = \left((5)/(3)\right)^(8x)

To simplify the left side of the equation, we'll use the rule that states when you multiply two numbers with the same base
(5)/(3), you add their exponents:


\sf \left((5)/(3)\right)^(-5) * \left((5)/(3)\right)^(-11) = \left((5)/(3)\right)^(-5 + (-11)) = \left((5)/(3)\right)^(-16)

Now, the equation becomes:


\sf \left((5)/(3)\right)^(-16) = \left((5)/(3)\right)^(8x)

Now, to solve for x, we can equate the exponents:


\sf -16 = 8x

dividing both sides by 8:


\sf x = (-16)/(8)


\sf x = -2

Therefore, Value of x is -2.
