Solve the following equation : 8^(x+1) = 16^(y+2) and (1/2)^3+x = (1/4)^3y
Solve system of exponential equations Solve: \[ 8^{x+1} = 16^{y+2}, \quad \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{3+x} = \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{3y} \] Solution \[ 8^{x+1} = 16^{y+2} \] \[ \Rightarrow (2^3)^{x+1} = (2^4)^{y+2} \] \[ \Rightarrow 2^{3x+3} = 2^{4y+8} \] \[ \Rightarrow 3x + 3 = 4y + 8 \quad …(1) \] \[ \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{3+x} = \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{3y} \] \[ \Rightarrow (2^{-1})^{3+x} = (2^{-2})^{3y} […]
