The values of x that satisfy the given equation are -1 and 3
What is an indical equation?
From the question, we are to determine the values of x that satisfy the given equation
The given equation is
25^x = 5^x^2-3
The can be written as
[tex]25^{x} =5^{x^{2} -3}[/tex]
Expressing 25 in index form, we get
[tex]5^{2x} =5^{x^{2}-3 }[/tex]
Now, equate the powers (since the bases are equal)
[tex]2x =x^{2}-3[/tex]
Then, we have that
[tex]x^{2} -2x-3 =0[/tex]
Solve quadratically
Using the factorization method, we get
[tex]x^{2} -2x-3 =0[/tex]
[tex]x^{2} -3x+x-3 =0[/tex]
[tex]x(x-3)+1(x-3)=0[/tex]
[tex](x+1)(x-3) =0[/tex]
∴ x+1 = 0 OR x-3 = 0
x = -1 OR x = 3
Hence, the values of x that satisfy the given equation are -1 and 3.
