Question
Solve : 8 x 22x + 4 x 2x + 1 = 1 + 2x
Advertisements
Solution
8 x 22x + 4 x 2x + 1 = 1 + 2x
⇒ 8 x `(2^x)^2` + 4 x 2x x 21 = 1 + 2x
⇒ 8 x `(2^x)^2` + 4 x 2x x 21 - 1 - 2x = 0
⇒ 8 x `(2^x)^2` + 2x x ( 8 - 1 ) - 1 = 0
⇒ 8 x `(2^x)^2` + 7( 2x ) - 1 = 0
⇒ 8y2 + 7y - 1 = 0 [ y = 2x ]
⇒ 8y2 + 8y - y - 1 = 0
⇒ 8y( y + 1 ) - 1( y + 1 ) = 0
⇒ ( 8y - 1 )( y + 1 ) = 0
⇒ 8y = 1 or y = - 1
⇒ y = `1/8` or y = -1
⇒ 2x = `1/8` or 2x = - 1
⇒ 2x = `1/2^3` or 2x = - 1
⇒ 2x = `2^-3` or 2x = - 1
⇒ x = - 3
[ ∵ 2x = - 1 is not possible. ]
