4xy + 8x²,5
is completely simplified to 2xy + 4xy, where a, b, c, and d represent integer exponents, what is the value of a?

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Separate into two parts

Simplify:

This is for the first fraction

Now for the second fraction:

Add both parts together

To turn this into the said formula, that would become:

Where:

a=0

b=1

c=1

d=3

Any value with an exponent 0 except zero will be equal to 1

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1
