Answer

34x−5⋅2−6x+33^{4x-5} \cdot 2^{-6x+3}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Convert all numbers to their prime bases.

    We have 3x−13^{x-1}, which is already in base 3.
    (13)−2=(3−1)−2=3(−1)×(−2)=32\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{-2} = (3^{-1})^{-2} = 3^{(-1) \times (-2)} = 3^2.
    0.125=1251000=18=2−30.125 = \frac{125}{1000} = \frac{1}{8} = 2^{-3}. So, (0.125)2x−1=(2−3)2x−1=2−3(2x−1)=2−6x+3(0.125)^{2x-1} = (2^{-3})^{2x-1} = 2^{-3(2x-1)} = 2^{-6x+3}.
    27−x+2=(33)−x+2=33(−x+2)=3−3x+627^{-x+2} = (3^3)^{-x+2} = 3^{3(-x+2)} = 3^{-3x+6}.

  2. Substitute these into the expression.

    3x−1⋅32⋅2−6x+33−3x+6\frac{3^{x-1} \cdot 3^2 \cdot 2^{-6x+3}}{3^{-3x+6}}
  3. Combine terms with the same base in the numerator.

    Using the rule am⋅an=am+na^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}:

    3x−1+2⋅2−6x+33−3x+6=3x+1⋅2−6x+33−3x+6\frac{3^{x-1+2} \cdot 2^{-6x+3}}{3^{-3x+6}} = \frac{3^{x+1} \cdot 2^{-6x+3}}{3^{-3x+6}}
  4. Combine terms with the same base using the division rule.

    Using the rule aman=am−n\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}:

    3(x+1)−(−3x+6)⋅2−6x+33^{(x+1) - (-3x+6)} \cdot 2^{-6x+3} 3x+1+3x−6⋅2−6x+33^{x+1+3x-6} \cdot 2^{-6x+3} 34x−5⋅2−6x+33^{4x-5} \cdot 2^{-6x+3}
