    Thank you for reminding me that I need to practice log problems until I can use logs to solve equations. I'm 78 years old, but not to old to review knowledge I neglected in my youth. The key to learning math is practicing and utilizing skills until one is proficient. The great thing about Math is that once a skill is mastered you know that knowledge is not going to change and can be used to solve more difficult problems. Math Knowledge is a Box of Tools used to solve math problems, in order to use the tools one must practice until one knows how to use the tools.

    As long as you are splitting up the multiplications in the logs to external addition, you might as well use Euler's Identity (e^pi*i = -1 : ln(-1) = pi*i) to tackle x = ln(1-sqrt(5)/2) / ln(3/2) = [Nodd*pi*i + ln(sqrt(5)-1) - ln(2)] / [ln(3) - ln(2)] = [ln(sqrt(5) - 1) - ln(2) / ln(3) - ln(2)] + [Nodd*pi/ln(3) - ln(2)]i, where Nodd is any odd integer.
    You also have x = [ln(sqrt(5) + 1) - ln(2) / ln(3) - ln(2)] + [Neven*pi/ln(3) - ln(2)]i, Neven is any even integer, and your answer is for Neven = 0.

    Answer x= 1.18681
    4^x + 6^x = 9^x
    4^x/6^x + 1 = 9^x/6^x ( divide both sides by 6^x)
    (2/3)^x +1 = (3/2)^x
    introduce y= (2/3)^x, therefore 1/y= (3/2)^x
    hence y + 1 = 1/y
    y^2 + y =1 ( mutliply both sides by y)
    y^2 + y-1 = 0
    using quadratic formulae calculator y= 0.618034 and -1.61803
    Therefore (2/3)^x = 0.618034 ( I won't use -1.61803 since will log both sides, and the natural log of a negative number is undefined)
    x log 2/3 = log 0.618034
    -0.176091 x = -0.208987
    x = 0.208987/0.17091 (since both were negative numbers)

    A geate example of why I use Excel to solve this type of problem. I create an Excel formula with the value of X in one cell with a starting value and a modified version of the equation equaling zero in another. Then I use Excel’s solver function. Done in one minute. The only issue is sometimes you get the wrong root. Then you start with a different value of X. I get paid to get the right answer and not by how I got the right answer.

    Let: (2^x )be (a), let (3^x )be( b) , then a^2 +ab -b^2=0, use casio 50FH or3650P2" fmla 01" to solve, a=0.618033988b , (reject the -1.61..),then (2^x)=0.618033988(3^x) , then x=(log0.618033988)÷(log2-log3)=1.186814393 ( exactly), just use calculator 1 step to solve x

    What is the base in authors log calculation ?
    lets say
    “log(2)” ???
    I remember LN() or LG()
    the bases are “e” and “10”

    when you divide through with 9 power x, as the first step, instead of 4 power x, it will give a perfect quadratic equation. However, the roots derived from that result in a completely different answer. x=3.880. I would love to have someone help me to understand that.

      Your approach is good and does yield the correct answer of approximately 1.186. (I worked the problem as you suggested just to check the answer again.) So, I got (2/3) power x = ((-1 + sqrt(5))/2). After taking log of both sides and applying properties of logs, x = (log(-1 + sqrt(5)) - log(2)) / (log(2) - log(3)). If this was your result, too, try inputting into your calculator as I have typed out with parentheses or break down the expression into smaller and smaller pieces using approximations. Your answer may be a little different as you introduce rounding error, but you will see that you have chosen a correct method which should yield the same answer.

    How can 10x = 9x? 4x + 6x = 10x, If x = 1.186 then 10 x = 11.86. 9x = 9 times 1.186 = 10.647. If I had $1000 in the bank and the bank manager told me that it was actually $900 I'd be a bit annoyed.

    Why do you put just log? Every log must have a base -- log [e] (ln), log [10] (lg) or smth else. There cannot be just log on no base.

    • @mikenajera8834
      @mikenajera8834 3 года назад

      Because log always means log[10]. If you want a different base, then you write the base number.

      @@mikenajera8834 Maybe this is true for the US math traditions... Here in Russia, if the log at the base of ten (10) is implied, we put it as "lg" (two chars), whereas "log" (three chars) is a logarithm of any valid base (except "10" and "e").
