what is the answer to this question.
the answer is going to be x=3.
Reason being is because if you do 2^3, which is 222, that is going to be 8. Once you get that you would multiply 5(8) which is going to be 40.
Hope this helps!
Divide both sides by 5
2^x=40/5
Simplify 40/5 to 8
2^x=8
Convert both sides to the same base
2^x=2 to the power of 3 or (2^3)
Cancel the base of 2 on both sides
x=3
