Solve 4^x-5 = 6 for x using the change of base formula log base b of y equals log y over log b

Mathematics

Ronch [10]3 years ago

Answer:

4^x-5=6 gives the solution x=\frac{\log(11)}{\log(4)}.

4^{x-5}=6 gives the solution x=\frac{\log(6)}{\log(4)}+5.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will solve both interpretations.

If we assume the equation is 4^{x}-5=6, then the following is the process:

4^x-5=6

Add 5 on both sides:

4^x=6+5

Simplify:

4^x=11

Now write an equivalent logarithm form:

\log_4(11)=x

x=\log_4(11)

Now using the change of base:

x=\frac{\log(11)}{\log(4)}.

If we assume the equation is 4^{x-5}=6, then we use the following process:

4^{x-5}=6

Write an equivalent logarithm form:

\log_4(6)=x-5

x-5=\log_4(6)

Add 5 on both sides:

x=\log_4(6)+5

Use change of base formula:

x=\frac{\log(6)}{\log(4)}+5
