a)
\(2^{n-1}:2=256\)
\(\Rightarrow2^{n-1}:2=2^8\)
\(\Rightarrow2^{n-1}=2^9\)
\(\Rightarrow n-1=9\)
\(\Rightarrow n=10\)
b)
\(5^n+5^{n-2}=650\)
\(\Rightarrow5^n+5^n:5^2=650\)
\(\Rightarrow5^n+5^n:25=650\)
\(\Rightarrow5^n+5^n.\dfrac{1}{25}=650\)
\(\Rightarrow5^n.\left(1+\dfrac{1}{25}\right)=650\)
\(\Rightarrow5^n.\dfrac{26}{25}=650\)
\(\Rightarrow5^n=625\)
\(\Rightarrow5^n=5^4\)
\(\Rightarrow n=4\)
c)
\(2^{n-3}+2^{n+1}=136\)
\(\Rightarrow2^n.\dfrac{1}{2^3}+2^n.2=136\)
\(\Rightarrow2^n.\left(\dfrac{1}{8}+2\right)=136\)
\(\Rightarrow2^n.\dfrac{17}{8}=136\)
\(\Rightarrow2^n=64\)
\(\Rightarrow2^n=2^6\)
\(\Rightarrow n=6\)
