What is the value of x after these statements if the starting value of x is 3.

AIf x^2 = 5^x then x := 25^x. (b) If x^2 > x and x^3 < 4x^2 then x := x+ 2. (c) If 4^x < x^4 or x^5 > 5^x then x := x^2. (d) If 5^x > 2^x xor x^2 < 11 then x := x + 8. (e) If x > 7 then x := x^2.

[A]
\(3^{2}=9\)
\(5^{3}=125\)
\(9 eq25\)

Ignore


[B]
\(3^{2} = 9\)
\(9 \ \textgreater \ 3\)
Yes

\(3^{3}=27\)
\(4( 3^{2})=36 27 \ \textless \ 36\)
Yes

Therefore
\(x=3+2=5\)


[C]
\(4^{5}=1024 5^{4}=625 1024\ \textless \ 625\)
No

\(5^{5}=3125 5^{5}=3125 3125\ \textgreater \ 3125\)
No

Ignore


[D]
\(5^{5}=3125 2^{5}=32 3125\ \textgreater \ 32\)
Yes

\(5^{2}=25 25\ \textless \ 11\)
No

Therefore
\(x=5+8=13\)


[E]
\(8\ \textgreater \ 7\)
Yes

Therefore
\(x = 13^{2}=169\)
