Find 8x32y\frac{8^{x}}{32^{y}} given 3x5y=23x-5y=2.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation given is 3x5y=3x -5y = . We need to find the value of 8x32y\frac{8^{x}}{32^{y}}

STEP 2

We first need to express 88 and 3232 as powers of 22. This is because 88 and 3232 are both powers of 22 and this will simplify the equation.
8=28 =2^{}32=2532 =2^{5}

STEP 3

Substitute these values into the expression 8x32y\frac{8^{x}}{32^{y}}.
8x32y=(23)x(25)y\frac{8^{x}}{32^{y}} = \frac{(2^{3})^{x}}{(2^{5})^{y}}

STEP 4

Using the power of a power rule, we simplify the expression. The power of a power rule states that (am)n=amn(a^{m})^{n} = a^{mn}.
(23)x(2)y=23x2y\frac{(2^{3})^{x}}{(2^{})^{y}} = \frac{2^{3x}}{2^{y}}

STEP 5

We can simplify this further using the quotient of powers rule. The quotient of powers rule states that aman=amn\frac{a^{m}}{a^{n}} = a^{m-n}.
23x25y=23x5y\frac{2^{3x}}{2^{5y}} =2^{3x-5y}

STEP 6

We know from the given equation that 3x5y=23x -5y =2. We can substitute this into the expression.
23x5y=222^{3x-5y} =2^{2}

STEP 7

implify the right side of the equation.
22=42^{2} =4So, x32y=4\frac{^{x}}{32^{y}} =4.
