    I think the problem is solved just at the point when it is found that x= ln30/ln4. The rest is unnecessary , a useless dilation to arrive to an impractical form

      yeah... unless the problem specified that your final answer could ONLY contain logs of primes... but even then: x = (ln(2) + ln(3) + ln(5))/(2ln(2)).
      lol I lost it at the change of base, like... in that case, screw it... x = log_4(30).

      100% - I got 2.45 from log30/log4. Not ln but log...

    After x is expressed as log of 30 devided by log 4 to the same base, everything else is pointless

      That's exactly what I thought ... then use a calculator ... But the 'answer' arrived at is left in logs, so I guess there's instructions like "do not use a calculator, and simplify as far as possible to prime numbers etc" Otherwise it's wandering around quite a bit.

    Советский школьник решил бы эту задачу в 3 раза быстрее. Не легче ли сразу было представить логарифм 30, как 2*15, а не разводить эту многоэтажную канитель!

    Problem is that there is no definition of done for this problem.
    Easiest solution would be log 30 base 4, using just definition of log.

    the problem should state that x is a real number. if x (or rather z) were complex, then there are infinitely-many solutions.

    From the viewpoint of someone who is not adept at logarithms, I have to accept each step as being sanely conceived.
    But, each step leads to a sort of insanity leading to a true unreality.

    If you were talking an assessment exam, you would not have the time to preform that many LOGS.
    That’s great when you are a student in the classroom, but in the real world you only have so many
    minutes to solve 30 and x. So what is quickest way to simplify a math equation like that?

    • @solidpixel
      @solidpixel 11 днів тому +1

      4^x = 30
      take the log to base 4 of both sides(because 4 is what is being raised to a power): log_4(4^x) = log_4(30)
      which gives x = log_4(30)
      since log_a(b) = log(b)/log(a),
      x = log(30)/log(4) STOP THERE

    This is so dumb
    Directly
    X=Log4(30) [Log 30 to base 4]
    And this is the simplest form, because it has one term one Log .
