Question 516954: logbase3 (x+2) = logbase4 (x)
Please help me to answer this question in preparation for my test.
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20060) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There is no solution, for the left side will always be greater than
the right side. That's because a logarithm is the exponent to which
the base must be raised to give the number which the logarithm is
taken of. It will always take a larger exponent of a smaller base 3
to get a larger number x+2, than it will take of a larger base 4 to
get a smaller number x.
