Q. Solve the following logarithm problem for the positive solution for x x .\newlinelogx64=65 \log _{x} 64=\frac{6}{5} \newlineAnswer:
  1. Understand the logarithmic equation: Understand the logarithmic equation.\newlineThe given logarithmic equation is logx(64)=65\log_x(64) = \frac{6}{5}. This means that xx raised to the power of 65\frac{6}{5} equals 6464.
  2. Convert to exponential form: Convert the logarithmic form to exponential form.\newlineUsing the definition of a logarithm, we can rewrite the equation in its exponential form: x65=64x^{\frac{6}{5}} = 64.
  3. Find the 55th root: Find the 55th root of both sides.\newlineTo isolate x6x^6, we take the 55th root of both sides of the equation: (x(6/5))(5/6)=64(5/6)(x^{(6/5)})^{(5/6)} = 64^{(5/6)}.
  4. Simplify the equation: Simplify the equation.\newlineThe left side simplifies to xx, and the right side simplifies to the 55th root of 6464 raised to the 66th power: x=(645/6)x = (64^{5/6}).
  5. Calculate the 55th root of 6464: Calculate the 55th root of 6464.\newlineThe 55th root of 6464 is 22 because 25=322^5 = 32 and 45=10244^5 = 1024, so 6464 must have a 55th root between 22 and 44. Since 26=642^6 = 64, we know that 22 is the 55th root of 6464.
  6. Raise to the 66th power: Raise the 55th root of 6464 to the 66th power.\newlineNow we raise 22 to the 66th power: 26=642^6 = 64.
  7. Write final answer: Write down the final answer.\newlineSince x=6456x = 64^{\frac{5}{6}} and we have found that 6456=26=6464^{\frac{5}{6}} = 2^6 = 64, the positive solution for xx is 22.
