QuestionSolve (3)x(2)x=36(\sqrt{3})^{x} \cdot(\sqrt{2})^{x}=36 for xx: (a) 1 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 4 (e) None.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given the equation (3)x()x=36(\sqrt{3})^{x} \cdot(\sqrt{})^{x}=36 . We need to find the value of xx
3. The possible values of xx are given as1,,3,4, or none of these

STEP 2

First, we need to rewrite the equation in a more manageable form. We can do this by combining the two terms on the left side of the equation into a single term.
()x(2)x=(2)x (\sqrt{})^{x} \cdot(\sqrt{2})^{x} = (\sqrt{} \cdot \sqrt{2})^{x}

STEP 3

Now, simplify the equation by multiplying the square roots.
(32)x=(6)x (\sqrt{3} \cdot \sqrt{2})^{x} = (\sqrt{6})^{x}

STEP 4

We can rewrite the equation in exponential form.
(6)x=36 (\sqrt{6})^{x} =36

STEP 5

We know that 2=\sqrt{}^2 =, so we can rewrite the equation asx=36^{x} =36

STEP 6

We can rewrite the right side of the equation as 626^2 to match the base on the left side.
6x=626^{x} =6^{2}

STEP 7

Now, we can equate the exponents, as the bases are the same.
x=2 x =2 So, the value of xx is2.
