    Math really teaches you to try the easy way first to be more efficient

    Ha-ha-ha, crazy solution! This problem is for kids at schools. 1/2 - is an obvious solution. And unique because y=4^(-x) is decreasing function, y=x - increasing.

    1/4^x = x:
    try 1, 1/4=1
    try higher 2, 1/16 = 2, wrong direction,
    try lower 1/2, 1/2 = 1/2
    thus x = 1/2
    trial and error, takes about 20 seconds

      You don't know if it's the only solution (or if a solution exists)

    4^-x=x; 4^(-x)^-1/x =x^-(-1)(1/x);=>4=
    (1/x)^1/x=4=2^2; =>1/x=2; x=1/2

    1=x*e^(x*ln4) , ln4=x*ln4*e^(x*ln4) , 2*ln2=x*ln4*e^(x*ln4) , ln2*e^(ln2)=x*ln4*e^(x*ln4) , ln2=x*ln4 , ln2=x*2*ln2 , 2x=1 , x=1/2 , test , OK ,
