Given :-
4^x + 6^x = 9^x
To find :-
Find the value of x ?
Solution:-
Given equation is 4^x + 6^x = 9^x
On dividing by 4^x both sides , then
=> (4^x+6^x)/(4^x) = (9^x)/(4^x)
=> (4^x/4^x) +(6^x/4^x) = 9^x/4^x
=> 1+(6^x/4^x) = 9^x/4^x
It can be arranged as
=> 9^x/4^x = (6^x/4^x)+1
we know that
(a/b)^m= a^m /b^m
=> (9/4)^x = (6/4)^x +1
=> (3²/2²)^x = [(3/2)^x] + 1
=> [(3/2)²]^x =[(3/2)^x] + 1
We know that
(a^m)^n = a^mn
=> (3/2)^(2x) = (3/2)^x +1
=> [(3/2)^x]^2 = (3/2)^x +1
Put (3/2)^x = a then
=> a² = a+1
=> a²-a = 1
=> a²-(2/2) a = 1
=> a²-2(a)(1/2) = 1
On adding (1/2)² both sides then
=>a²-2(a)(1/2)+(1/2)² = 1+(1/2)²
=> [a-(1/2)]² = 1+(1/4)
Since (a-b)² = a²-2ab +b²
=> [a-(1/2)]² = (4+1)/4
=> [a-(1/2)]² = 5/4
=> a-(1/2) =±√(5/4)
=> a-(1/2) =±√5/2
=> a =(1/2)±√5/2
=> a = (1±√5)/2
=> a = (1+√5)/2 or (1-√5)/2
=> (3/2)^x = (1+√5)/2 or (3/2)^x = (1-√5)/2
On taking logarithms both sides then
=> log (3/2)^x = log (1+√5)/2
=> x log (3/2) = log (1+√5)/2
since log a^m = m log a
=> x =[ log (1+√5)/2 ]/[log (3/2)] and
x = [ log (1-√5)/2 ]/[log (3/2)]
Answer:-
The value of x for the given problem is
[log (1±√5)/2 ]/[log (3/2)]
Used formulae:-
- (a/b)^m= a^m /b^m
- (a-b)² = a²-2ab +b²
- (a^m)^n = a^mn
- log a^m = m log a
