Question 1
From eqn 2
Log2^x - log2^w=2
log2(x/w)=log2^4
Log cancel log
x/w=4
x=4w..........(3)

From eqn 1
Sub d value of x
Log8^xw=2
Log8^4w²=2
Log8^4w²=log8^64
Log8 cancel log8
We have
4w²=64
Divide both sides by 4
w²=16
Take square root
w= 4.
Sub the value of w in eqn 3 above
X=4w
X=4x4
X= 16
Therefore we have that x=16 and w=4.
Prove
Using eqn 2
Log2^16-log2^4=2
4log2^2-2log2^2= 2
We knw dat log2^2= 1
We have that
(4x1)-(2x1)=2
4-2=2
2=2. Hence d ansa is absolutely correct.
Still working on question 2. Wil b bck soon.
Note: the sign ^ mean superscript Not power. Typing with a mobile fone.
