1) 4log32 - 2log3x = 1
Note that 1 = log3 3 .....so we can write
4 log3 2 - 2log3x = log3 3 { log property : b log a = logab }
log3 2^4 - log3x^2 = log33 { log a - log b = log (a/b) } ⇒ 24 = 16
log3 (16/ x^2) = log3 3
Since we have equal logs we can just solve
16/x^2 = 3
x^2 = 16 / 3 take the positive root
x = 4 / √ 3 ≈ 2.3094
2) logx2 = 2 ....we can write
2 log x = 2 divide both sides by 2
log x = 1
This says that 10^1 = x = 10
