Take the logarithm of both sides. The base of the logarithm doesn't matter.


Drop the exponents:

Expand the right side:

Move the terms containing <em>x</em> to the left side and factor out <em>x</em> :


Solve for <em>x</em> by dividing boths ides by 5 log(4) - log(3) :

You can stop there, or continue simplifying the solution by using properties of logarithms:



You can condense the solution further using the change-of-base identity,

Part A:
Given

defined by


but

Since, f(xy) ≠ f(x)f(y)
Therefore, the function is not a homomorphism.
Part B:
Given

defined by

Note that in

, -1 = 1 and f(0) = 0 and f(1) = -1 = 1, so we can also use the formular


and

Therefore, the function is a homomorphism.
Part C:
Given

, defined by


Since, f(x+y) ≠ f(x) + f(y), therefore, the function is not a homomorphism.
Part D:
Given

, defined by


but

Since, h(ab) ≠ h(a)h(b), therefore, the funtion is not a homomorphism.
Part E:
Given

, defined by
![\left([x_{12}]\right)=[x_4]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%28%5Bx_%7B12%7D%5D%5Cright%29%3D%5Bx_4%5D)

![[u_n]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Bu_n%5D)

Then, for any

Therefore, the function is a homomorphism.
Hello,
