The length of BC is
.
Solution:
Given ABC is a right triangle.
AC is the hypotenuse and BD is the altitude.
AB and BC are legs of the triangle ABC.
AC = 16 and DC = 5
<u>Leg rule of geometric mean theorem:</u>



Do cross multiplication.



Taking square root on both sides.


square and square roots get canceled, we get

The length of BC is
.
[deleted due to wrong answer]
log(3x) = log(2x-4)
taking antilog of both sides:
3x = 2x - 4
3x - 2x = -4 [subtracting 2x from both sides]
x = -4
and we're done already!
