Solve the equation below:
\[\log_{4} x=1+\log_{2} 2x, x>0\]
i guess we must solve for x
@experimentX do u understand?
yeah ... solve for x.
use this property of log \[ \log_a b = \frac{\log_kb}{\log_k a}\]
i still dont get it sorry
sorry ... error there \[ \log_4x = \frac{\log_2k}{\log_24} = \frac{\log_2k}{2} \]
Oops ... error again, that k is supposed to be x
if you know other few properties of log then it's should be easy for you!!
\[ \frac{\log_2x}{2} = \log_22 + \log_22x\] \[ \implies \log_2x = 2\log_22 + 2\log_22x \] \[ \implies \log_2x = \log_22^2 + \log_2(2x)^2 \] \[ \implies \log_2x = \log_2(2^2*(2x)^2) \] \[ \implies x = 2^2*(2x)^2 \]
\[ \implies x = \frac{1}{16} \]
@experimentX thanks
yw ... though not sure about answer!! check on wolframalpha!!
its correct
because these are past papers they tell us the answer but they dont show us how to get it
