Full solution

Q. Solve the inequality: 27x4125x>45x27^x-4\cdot125^x>45^x
  1. Rewrite bases as powers: Rewrite the bases as powers of a common base:\newline27=3327 = 3^3, 125=53125 = 5^3, 45=9×5=32×545 = 9 \times 5 = 3^2 \times 5.\newlineSo, 27x=(33)x=3(3x)27^x = (3^3)^x = 3^{(3x)}, 125x=(53)x=5(3x)125^x = (5^3)^x = 5^{(3x)}, and 45x=(32×5)x=3(2x)×5x45^x = (3^2 \times 5)^x = 3^{(2x)} \times 5^x.
  2. Substitute into inequality: Substitute these into the inequality: 33x4×53x>32x×5x3^{3x} - 4 \times 5^{3x} > 3^{2x} \times 5^x.
  3. Divide and simplify: Divide all terms by 5x5^x to simplify:\newline(33x5x)4×(53x5x)>32x×5x5x\left(\frac{3^{3x}}{5^x}\right) - 4 \times \left(\frac{5^{3x}}{5^x}\right) > \frac{3^{2x} \times 5^x}{5^x},\newlinewhich simplifies to 33x5x4×52x>32x.\frac{3^{3x}}{5^x} - 4 \times 5^{2x} > 3^{2x}.
  4. Rewrite with single exponents: Rewrite the terms with single exponents:\newline(33)x/5x4×(52)x>(32)x(3^3)^x / 5^x - 4 \times (5^2)^x > (3^2)^x,\newlinewhich simplifies to 33xx4×25x>9x3^{3x - x} - 4 \times 25^x > 9^x.
