### Solving Equations Using Properties of Exponents and Logarithms

#### Task 1: Solve for \( x \) using the One-to-One Property
**Problem:** 
\[ e^{x^2 - 8} = e^{7x} \]

**Implementation:**
Enter your answer in the provided text box and submit.

**Input Field:**
\[ x = \]
\[ \text{Submit Answer} \]

**Explanation:**
By using the One-to-One Property of exponential functions, since \( a^b = a^c \) implies \( b = c \) when \( a > 0 \), solve for \( x \) given the exponential variables equate to each other.

#### Task 2: Solve for \( x \) using the One-to-One Property
**Problem:** 
\[ \log_5(x + 1) = \log_5(3) \]

**Implementation:**
Enter your answer in the provided text box as a comma-separated list if there are multiple values.

**Input Field:**
\[ x = \]

**Explanation:**
By using the One-to-One Property of logarithmic functions, since \( \log_b(x) = \log_b(y) \) implies \( x = y \), solve for \( x \).

#### Task 3: Expand the Logarithmic Expression
**Problem:**
\[ \log_6 \left( \frac{x y^2}{z^4} \right) \]

**Implementation:**
Rewrite the logarithmic expression using logarithmic properties and enter the expanded form in the provided text box. 

**Input Field:**
Format appropriately to display sums, differences, and/or constant multiples.

**Explanation:**
Use the properties of logarithms to expand the expression as a sum, difference, and/or constant multiple of logarithms. The properties utilized include:
- \(\log_b (xy) = \log_b (x) + \log_b (y)\)
- \(\log_b \left( \frac{x}{y} \right) = \log_b (x) - \log_b (y)\)
- \(\log_b (x^c) = c \log_b (x)\)

**Note:** Assume all variables are positive to apply these properties correctly.
