There is no solution to our equation
if you meant it the way you typed it , then
3^x + 1 = 4^x + 1
3^x = 4^x would only be true if 3 = 4
If you meant 3^(x+1) = 4^(x+1)
this could only be true if 3 = 4
To solve the equation 3^(x+1) = 4^(x+1), we can first take the base-10 logarithm of both sides of the equation. By applying the logarithmic rule, we get:
log(3^(x+1)) = log(4^(x+1))
Now, using the logarithmic rule that states log(a^b) = b * log(a), we can rewrite the equation as:
(x+1) * log(3) = (x+1) * log(4)
Since (x+1) appears on both sides of the equation, we can cancel it out:
log(3) = log(4)
Now, we solve for x by isolating x on one side of the equation. We divide both sides of the equation by log(4) to get:
log(3) / log(4) = x
Therefore, the solution to the equation is:
x = log(3) / log(4)
