Find the exact solution to the equation.320 x (1/4)^x/4=5

Answer:

  • none of the above (as written)
  • x = 12 (as interpreted)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation written has two solutions, neither of which is among those listed. There are no algebraic means for solving it, but solutions can be found graphically and by iteration.

  \dfrac{320x\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)^x}{4}=5\\\\16x\cdot 4^{-x}=1

With a little more manipulation, this becomes ...

  4^{x-2}-x=0

It has solutions near x= 0.069 and x = 2.722.

____

It looks like you may want your equation to be interpreted to be ...

  320\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)^{\dfrac{x}{4}}=5\\\\64\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)^{\dfrac{x}{4}}=1\\\\\log{(64)}-\dfrac{x}{4}\log{4}=0 \quad\text{take logs}\\\\\left(3-\dfrac{x}{4}\right)\log{4}=0 \quad\text{use $64=4^3$}\\\\12-x=0 \quad\text{multiply by 4, divide by $\log{4}$}

The exact solution to this interpretation of the problem is x = 12.
