Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     8^4*x-(16)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

 1.1     8 = 23

(8)⁴ = (2³)⁴ = 2¹²

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (212 • x) -  16  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   4096x - 16  =   16 • (256x - 1) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  16 • (256x - 1)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    16   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    256x-1 = 0 

 Add  1  to both sides of the equation : 
                      256x = 1
Divide both sides of the equation by 256:
                     x = 1/256 = 0.004
