Using the same base of exponents to solve using the equality property

The video tutorial explains how to solve exponential equations by setting exponents equal when the bases are the same. It demonstrates converting fractions to negative exponents and solving for unknown variables using these principles. The example used involves rewriting 1/32 as a power of two and solving the equation 2^(X+1) = 2^(-5) to find the value of X.
