Explanation:

since the bases are the same all you have to do is just get the powers of both bases which is 3x + 1 and 10

you're then going to equate 3 x + 1 to 10 and then you have to make +1 cross to the other side making it become -1

you then can subtract 1 from 10 leaving you with 9

and at the LHS we have 3x

we are gonna get rid of the three by dividing it into itself and the 9 at the RHS then X = 3

Solve for X: 2^3x + 1 = 2^10 please look at photo and give detailed steps!! thank-example-1
