Rewrite both sides of the equation so they have the same base. Now the exponents must be equal. Write an equation and solve for $z$.

$2^{2z}=2^{3}$

Follow the steps in part (a). Notice that both $4$ and $8$ can be rewritten as powers of $2$.

Follow the steps in part (a).

$25=5^{2}$

$\frac{z+1}{3}=\frac{2}{z}$
Get all the terms on one side of the equation, factor, and use the Zero Product Property.

$z = -3, 2$
