D

x 7/2 x 2√3

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

x 7/2 x 2√3

Solution :

We are given the equation:

(4096)x=743


Since 4096=642, we can rewrite this as:

(642)x=764


642x=764


Taking the 2x-th root on both sides:

64=7642x


Let y=64. Then:

y=7y2x


Taking log to the base 7 on both sides:

log7(y)=y2x


Alternatively, looking at Option 4:

x7232x=x782x=x74x


Let's express x in terms of powers. Since 642x=764, we have (26)2x=764212x=76423x=716.


So, 2x=7163, or x=log2(7163)=163log27.


Let's check Option 4: x7232x

We have 764=4096x. Taking x-th root: 4096=764x.

Since 64=40961/2, we have 64=732x.

Also, 23=8, so the exponent in Option 4 is 82x=4x, which gives x74/x.

Using 64=732/x, we can rewrite this to verify that Option 4 indeed simplifies to 64.
