Question

If 2x=4y+12^x = 4^{y+1} and 3y=3x93^y = 3^{x-9}​, then the values of x and y, respectively, are:​

A.

16, 7

B.

-16, 7

C.

-16, -7

D.

16, -7

Correct option is A

Given:

2x=4y+12^x = 4^{y+1}​ and3y=3x93^y = 3^{x-9}​​,

Solution:

2x=22(y+1)

Comparing power on both sides,

x = 2y+2

x - 2y = 2      ......(1) 

3y=3x93^y = 3^{x-9}​​

Comparing power on both sides,

y = x - 9

x - y = 9   ......... ( 2)

From equation 1 and 2, We have

x = 16, y = 7

Thus, option (A) is right.
