If you must know,that's a question I solved in my 100L days in UNILAG way back 2001.

*******Solution******


taking ratio with 4^x throughout,

we have

(3/4)^x + 1= (5/4)^x

=>(0.75)^x -( 1.25)^x+1

=(1-0.25)^x -(1+0.25)^x +1

Now by. binomials, (1+r)^p=1+pr + 0.5p(p-1)r² +. . .

we thus have

1-0.25x -1-0.25x +1 =0

=> x=1/0.5

hence x=2

guess am right.

Though you got the answer but I have a different approach to solving the problem. Send your number so I credit your phone ASAP.

OK. boss..

thanks ..let's see your approach .

Another approach is making use of Logarithm.

From pythagorean triple a^2+b^2=c^2 where (a,b,c) are (3,4,5).... 3^x+4^x=5^x therefore x=2 because (a,b,c) are pythagorean triple.

This your method is simply called inspection method.
