8) solve 4^(x - 2)= 8^6

a)5

b)8

c)10

d)11

For this case we have the following equation:

We must create equivalent expressions in the equation, so that they have equal bases:

If the bases are the same, then the two expressions are only equal if the exponents are equal:

Option D

OPTION D

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the following:

 Then, you must descompose 4 and 8 into their prime factors:

Rewriting the expression:

Now you get:

Finally, you must solve for the variable "x".

Therefore, you get the following result:

answer: 1722

step-by-step explanation:

given: the mass of saturn=

the mass of mercury=

the number of times the mass of saturn is greater than the mass of mercury

hence, the mass of saturn is 1722 times greater than the mass of mercury.
