Now rewrite the equation in exponential form: 8^4/34/34/3 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
Simplify the left side: 232^323^4/3 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2 2^4 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2 16 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 4 and then taking the square root of both sides: 16/4 = x^2x−1x-1x−1^2 4 = x^2x−1x-1x−1^2 2 = xx−1x-1x−1
Now, we can solve for x by setting xx−1x-1x−1 = 2 to zero: x^2 - x - 2 = 0 x−2x - 2x−2x+1x + 1x+1 = 0 x = 2 or x = -1
Therefore, the solutions to the given logarithmic equation are x = 2 and x = -1.
To solve this logarithmic equation, we first need to simplify the terms using the properties of logarithms.
Given equation: 2*log82x2x2x + log8x−1x-1x−1^2 = 4/3
Using the properties of logarithms, we can rewrite log82x2x2x as log8222 + log8xxx. Similarly, log8x−1x-1x−1^2 can be rewritten as 2*log8x−1x-1x−1.
Therefore, the equation becomes: 2log8(2)+log8(x)log8(2) + log8(x)log8(2)+log8(x) + 2log8x−1x-1x−1 = 4/3.
Now, we will use the property of logarithms which states that a*logbccc = logbccc^a to simplify the equation further.
The equation becomes: log8222^222 + 2*log8xxx + log8(x−1)2(x-1)^2(x−1)2 = 4/3
Simplify this further:
log8444 + log8x2x^2x2 + log8(x−1)2(x-1)^2(x−1)2 = 4/3
Now, we can combine the logarithmic terms using the property of adding logarithms of the same base.
log8(4)<em>(x2)</em>((x−1)2)(4)<em>(x^2)</em>((x-1)^2)(4)<em>(x2)</em>((x−1)2) = 4/3
Now we can express the equation using the formula logbmnmnmn = logbmmm + logbnnn.
log8444 + log8x2x^2x2 + log8(x−1)2(x-1)^2(x−1)2 = 4/3
log84<em>(x2)</em>((x−1)2)4<em>(x^2)</em>((x-1)^2)4<em>(x2)</em>((x−1)2) = 4/3
log84x2(x−1)24x^2(x-1)^24x2(x−1)2 = 4/3
Now rewrite the equation in exponential form:
8^4/34/34/3 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
Simplify the left side:
232^323^4/3 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
2^4 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
16 = 4x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 4 and then taking the square root of both sides:
16/4 = x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
4 = x^2x−1x-1x−1^2
2 = xx−1x-1x−1
Now, we can solve for x by setting xx−1x-1x−1 = 2 to zero:
x^2 - x - 2 = 0
x−2x - 2x−2x+1x + 1x+1 = 0
x = 2 or x = -1
Therefore, the solutions to the given logarithmic equation are x = 2 and x = -1.
