Solution
The correct option is
D
256
Given,
(
16
)
2
x
+
3
=
(
64
)
x
+
3
We can write 16 as
2
4
and
64
=
2
6
So,
(
2
4
)
2
x
+
3
=
(
2
6
)
x
+
3
(
2
)
8
x
+
12
=
(
2
)
6
x
+
18
So,
8
x
+
12
=
6
x
+
18
8
x
−
6
x
=
18
−
12
2
x
=
6
x
=
3
We have to find out the value of
4
2
x
−
2
Keep the value of
x
=
