What are the values of x and y that satisfy the equation, $${{\text{2}}^{0.7x}}{\text{.}}{{\text{3}}^{ - 1.25y}}{\text{ = }}\frac{{8\sqrt 6 }}{{27}}{\text{ ?}}$$

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & {{\text{2}}^{0.7x}}{\text{.}}{{\text{3}}^{ - 1.25y}}{\text{ = }}\frac{{8\sqrt 6 }}{{27}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow \frac{{{{\text{2}}^{0.7x}}}}{{{{\text{3}}^{ 1.25y}}}}{\text{ = }}\frac{{{2^3}{{.2}^{\frac{1}{2}}}{{.3}^{\frac{1}{2}}}}}{{{3^3}}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow \frac{{{2^{\left( {3 + \frac{1}{2}} \right)}}}}{{{3^{\left( {3 - \frac{1}{2}} \right)}}}} = \frac{{{2^{\frac{7}{2}}}}}{{{2^{\frac{5}{2}}}}} = \frac{{{2^{3.5}}}}{{{3^{2.5}}}} \cr & \therefore 0.7x = 3.5 \Rightarrow x = \frac{{3.5}}{{0.7}}{\text{ = 5}} \cr & {\text{and }}1.25y = 2.5 \cr & \Rightarrow y = \frac{{2.5}}{{1.25}} = 2 \cr} $$
