  • Options
  • A. 10
  • B. 12
  • C. 9
  • D. 8

  • Correct Answer
  • 10 

    Explanation

    2x - 1 + 2x + 1 = 2560
    2x - 1 + 2x - 1 + 2 = 2560
    Apply the Law of Algebra
    2x - 1 + 2x - 1 x 2 2 = 2560
    ? 2x - 1 ( 1 + 22 ) = 2560
    ? 2x - 1 = 2560/5 = 512 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
    ? 2x - 1 = 29
    ? x - 1 = 9
    ? x = 9 + 1 = 10
