lo g 2 x 2 1 6 lo g 2 ( 2 x ) lo g 2 ( 2 3 3 3 ) 1 + lo g 2 x 3 + 3 lo g 2 3 3 + 3 lo g 2 3 ⟹ x = x = x = x = x + x lo g 2 x = 3 Multiplying both sides by 1 + lo g 2 x Noting the positions of x and 3 on both sides
Sir, explain the 4th statement.

I have added notes to explain. Hope they help.

Can't we do it without judging the positions? rigorously?

@A Former Brilliant Member – I don't know, but this is rigorous enough for me.

@Chew-Seong Cheong – I also got the logic. What is true for 3 + lo g 2 3 is also true for x + x lo g 2 x . But can't we add up few more lines to mathematically show that x = 3 . That's what I wanted to know. Thank you.

@A Former Brilliant Member – Just look at it as mathematical induction. We can say that If f ( x ) = x + x lo g 2 x , then f ( 3 ) = 3 + 3 lo g 2 3 . Therefore, x = 3 . But I don't think it is all necessary.
