1. 3 log(base 2) x =12
log (base 2) x^3 = 12
Taking anti-log
x^3 = 2^12 = (2^4)^3
taking cube root
x =2^4=16
Hence x =16 ................Ans
2. 3+4(log base x) 4 =5
4 (log( base x) 4 = 5-3 =2
log(base x) 4^4= 2
taking anti-log
4^4 = x^2
x^2 = 256

➊ 3 log₂x = 12 ← first, divide both sides by 3
log₂x = 4
x = 2⁴
x = 16
➋ 3 + 4 logₓ4 = 5 ← first, subtract 3 from both sides
4 logₓ4 = 2
logₓ(4⁴) = 2
logₓ(4⁴) = 2
x² = 4⁴ ← now, take the square root of both sides
x = ±√(4⁴) ← by the square root property
x = ±4²
x = ±16 ← Notice that the base of the log in the original equation is x.
And, since log bases must be positive, we discard -16.
