Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To solve the exponential equation \( 6^{(x-4)} = 1 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Recognize that 1 can be expressed as an exponent We know that any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 equals 1. Therefore, we can express 1 as: \[ 1 = 6^0 \] ### Step 2: Set the exponents equal to each other Since the bases are the same (both are 6), we can set the exponents equal to each other: \[ x - 4 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Solve for \( x \) Now, we can solve for \( x \) by adding 4 to both sides of the equation: \[ x = 4 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the solution to the equation \( 6^{(x-4)} = 1 \) is: \[ \boxed{4} \] ---
