    I used Method 1. Many people will just jump to using natural (base e) or common (base 10) logs, because of familiarity. But a good rule of thumb is to choose a base that makes some terms go away and simplifies as much of the calculation as possible. Base 6 in this case.

    2^x = 3^y, x+y= 1
    If x+y= 1, that means x= 1-y
    2^(1-y) = 3^y
    => 2/(2^y)= 3^y
    => 6^y= 2
    => y= Log_6(2)
    Since x= 1-y, x= 1-Log_6(2)
    So x= 1-Log_6(2), and y= Log_6(2) are the solutions

      1 = log_6(6) so if we simplify x further then x = log_6(6) - log_6(2) = log_6(6/2) = log_6(3)

    Given:
    2↑x = 3↑y - ①
    x + y = 1 - ②
    To find:
    x, y
    As it can never be zero, multiplying both sides of ① by 2↑y:
    (2↑x)·(2↑y) = (3↑y)·(2↑y)
    Using『(a↑b)(a↑c) = a↑(b + c)』and『(a↑b)(c↑b) = (ac)↑b』to rewrite both sides:
    2↑(x + y) = (2·3)↑y = 6↑y
    Substituting with ②:
    2↑1 = 6↑y
    6↑y = 2
    Taking log (base 6)「lh」on both sides:
    y = lh(2)
    x + y = 1
    x = 1 - y
    x = 1 - lh(2)
    Using『1 = lh(6)』and『log(a) - log(b) = log(a/b)』to rewrite x as a single logarithmic term:
    x = lh(3).
    x = lh(3) and y = lh(2) where lh is log (base 6).

  • @WolfgangKais2
    @WolfgangKais2 2 года назад +1

    In method 2, both x and y can be found the same way. To find y, multiply both sides by 2^y (like you did), and to find x, multiply both sides by 3^x.

    I'd like to pose a geometric challenge:
    Find a trapezium (two parallel sides) so that the four sides and the longer diagonal follow a geometric progression starting with 1.
    So if the four sides are a, b, c, d and the longer diagonal is D, the lengths would be a=1, b=r, c=r^2, d=r^3 and D=r^4.
    Find the exact value of the ratio r and the area of the trapezium.

    • @WahranRai
      @WahranRai 2 года назад +1

      Let ABCD the trapezium with AB , DC parallels and DH the height of trapezium : Area = 0.5*DH*(AB+DC)
      AD² = DH² + AH² and BD² = DH² + BH² etc....
      Heron formula for triangles ADB, BCD giving : Area trapezium = area ADB + area BCD ...

    I think we can do the exact reverse over here 3:50
    2^x × 3^x = 3^y ×3^x
    6^x=3^(x+y)
    6^x=3
    x=log(base6)3

  • @mega_mango
    @mega_mango 2 года назад

    Very easy 👍😜
    2^x = 3^y
    2^(x+y) = 2 = 1.5^y * 2^y * 2^y = 6^y. y = log (6, 2). 6 ≠ int^n, so if we want to see log(6,2) like a n/m we can't. So it's irrational that = 0,3868... So, x = 1 - log (6,2)

    Using first part of 3rd method I got here . . . x/y = ln3/ln2 . . . subbing 1-y for x I get an equation in y . . . namely (1-y)/y = ln3/ln2 . . . now if I multiply both sides by y and factor my equation becomes . . . y(y+0.585) = 0 . . . . . . . . but this does not yield a correct solution, and I can't see my error. Can anyone help, thanks

    • @SyberMath
      @SyberMath  Год назад +1

      if you solve for y, you should get y(ln(3)+ln(2))=ln(2) and
      y=ln(2)/(ln(3)+ln(2))
