Solve: (sqrt 5)^x +1=25^x

If you could please give detail on how to slove. I am having trouble learning this type of problem. Thank you!

This might makes sense if (sqrt 5)^(x + 1). Correct?

If x=0, then 1+1 = 1?

Sorry, I did not see the +1!

I guess then, the correct statement should be with the x+1 in the exponent of the LHS.

I see now that this was supposed to be (sqrt(5))^(x+1)
