The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( 3^{4+1} - 2 \cdot 3^{2x+2} - 81 = 0 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Simplify the equation First, we simplify \( 3^{4+1} \): \[ 3^{4+1} = 3^5 \] So the equation becomes: \[ 3^5 - 2 \cdot 3^{2x+2} - 81 = 0 \] ### Step 2: Calculate \( 3^5 \) and \( 81 \) Next, we calculate \( 3^5 \) and \( 81 \): \[ 3^5 = 243 \quad \text{and} \quad 81 = 3^4 \] Now, substituting these values back into the equation gives us: \[ 243 - 2 \cdot 3^{2x+2} - 81 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Combine like terms Now, we combine \( 243 \) and \( -81 \): \[ 243 - 81 = 162 \] So the equation simplifies to: \[ 162 - 2 \cdot 3^{2x+2} = 0 \] ### Step 4: Isolate the term with \( x \) Rearranging the equation gives: \[ 2 \cdot 3^{2x+2} = 162 \] Now, divide both sides by \( 2 \): \[ 3^{2x+2} = \frac{162}{2} = 81 \] ### Step 5: Rewrite \( 81 \) as a power of \( 3 \) We know that: \[ 81 = 3^4 \] So we can rewrite the equation as: \[ 3^{2x+2} = 3^4 \] ### Step 6: Equate the exponents Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other: \[ 2x + 2 = 4 \] ### Step 7: Solve for \( x \) Now, we solve for \( x \): \[ 2x = 4 - 2 \] \[ 2x = 2 \] \[ x = 1 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the solution to the equation is: \[ \boxed{1} \]
