If 2^(3x+2)*3^(2y-3) = 32^x*9^y, then x + y = Choose the correct option.
A) -3 B) -1 C) 0 D) -5 E) -2
Here is my solution.   2^(3x+2)*3^(y-3) = 32^x*9^y   Here RHS 32^x*9^y= 2^(5x)*3^(2y)   -2quating powers on both sides--&gt;   3x+2=5x , thus x 3 +2=

<output>5</output>
5x , thus x=1 and   y-3=2y giving y=-3   So, x+y=-2   Option: -2
<result>E</result>
