Evaluate
625×53x3
Rewrite the expression
54×53x3
Calculate
53x3+4
53x3+4=125
Rewrite in exponential form
53x3+4=53
Since the bases are the same,set the exponents equal
3x3+4=3
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
3x3=3−4
Subtract the numbers
3x3=−1
Divide both sides
33x3=3−1
Divide the numbers
x3=3−1
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
