<s>[INST] $2^{x-3} + \frac {15}{2^{3-x}} = 256$ $$2^{x-3} + \frac {15}{2^{3-x}} = 256$$

*Find the unknown $x$. 


My attempt: 
We know that $x^y . x^b = x^{y+b}$.
$$2^x . 2^{-3} + 15. 2^{-3+x} = 2^8$$
and 
$$2^x . 2^{-3} + 15. 2^{-3} . 2^x = 2^8$$
From here, we get
$$2^x + 15 = 2^8$$
However, I'm stuck at here and waiting for your kindest helps. 
Thank you. 
 [/INST] Hint:
As $2^{-y}=\dfrac1{2^y}$
$$\dfrac1{2^{3-x}}=2^{-(3-x)}=?$$
