Question:

Solve for x: 2^(3x - 2) = 4^x...I got it down to log4 = xlog2^(3x-2). Where to go from there?

  1. Last answer is correct but not the simplest method.

    2^(3x - 2) = 4^x = (2^2)^x = 2^(2x)

    3x - 2 = 2x

    x = 2


  2. 2^(3x-2)=4^x

    log base 2 to the 4^x=3x-2

    x*log base 2 to the 4=3x-2

    x*2=3x-2

    2x=3x-2

    -x=-2

    x=2

  3. 2^(3x-2)=4^x=>

    2^(3x-2)=2^(2x)=>

    3x-2=2x=>

    x=2

    If you use "log",then

    (3x-2)log2=xlog4=>

    (3log2)x-(2log2)x=2log2=>

    (log2)x=2log2=>

    x=2

    I think solve it in exponential equation is better
