Take log to the base 2 both side . Then substitute log x to the base 2 as t.

By doing this, you will be leading to

(6t^{2}+ 8t - 10t)(t)=4

3t^{3}+4t^{2}-5t-2=0

(t-1)(t+2)(3t+1)=0

so, t=1, t=-2, t=-1/3 are the solutions for this equation.

which leads to x=2,-1/4, and 2^{-1/3}.

Hence answer x={2}

hey abhinav how are you?
