Answer

Given,

⇒ 4x + 3 = 112 + 8 × 4x

⇒ 4x.43 = 8(14 + 4x)

⇒ 64.4x = 8(14 + 4x)

64.4x8\dfrac{64.4^x}{8} = 14 + 4x

⇒ 8.4x = 14 + 4x

⇒ 8.4x - 4x = 14

⇒ 4x(8 - 1) = 14

⇒ 7.4x = 14

⇒ 4x = 147\dfrac{14}{7}

⇒ (22)x = 2

⇒ 22x = 21

⇒ 2x = 1

⇒ x = 12\dfrac{1}{2}.

Substituting value of x in (18x)3x, we get :

(18x)3x=(18×12)3×12=932=(32)32=32×32=33=27.\Rightarrow (18x)^{3x} = \Big(18 \times \dfrac{1}{2}\Big)^{3 \times \dfrac{1}{2}} \\[1em] = 9^{\dfrac{3}{2}} \\[1em] = (3^2)^{\dfrac{3}{2}} \\[1em] = 3^{2 \times \dfrac{3}{2}} \\[1em] = 3^3 \\[1em] = 27.

Hence, (18x)3x = 27.
