Step-by-step explanation:
since the bases are the same all you have to do is just get the powers of both bases which is 3x + 1 and 10
you're then going to equate 3 x + 1 to 10 and then you have to make +1 cross to the other side making it become -1
you then can subtract 1 from 10 leaving you with 9
and at the LHS we have 3x
we are gonna get rid of the three by dividing it into itself and the 9 at the RHS then X = 3
