The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \( \frac{1}{\log_{3}\pi} + \frac{1}{\log_{4}\pi} > x \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Use the Change of Base Formula We start by applying the change of base formula for logarithms, which states that: \[ \log_{a}b = \frac{1}{\log_{b}a} \] Using this property, we can rewrite our expression: \[ \frac{1}{\log_{3}\pi} = \log_{\pi}3 \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{1}{\log_{4}\pi} = \log_{\pi}4 \] Thus, we have: \[ \log_{\pi}3 + \log_{\pi}4 > x \] ### Step 2: Combine the Logarithms Using the property of logarithms that states \( \log_{a}b + \log_{a}c = \log_{a}(bc) \), we can combine the logarithms: \[ \log_{\pi}(3 \cdot 4) > x \] This simplifies to: \[ \log_{\pi}12 > x \] ### Step 3: Take the Antilogarithm To find the value of \( x \), we can rewrite the inequality in exponential form: \[ 12 > \pi^x \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( x \) Now, we need to find \( x \) such that \( \pi^x < 12 \). We can estimate the value of \( \pi \): \[ \pi \approx 3.14 \] Calculating powers of \( \pi \): - \( \pi^2 \approx 3.14^2 \approx 9.86 \) - \( \pi^3 \approx 3.14^3 \approx 31.006 \) From this, we can see that \( \pi^2 < 12 < \pi^3 \). Therefore, \( x \) must be between 2 and 3. ### Step 5: Determine the Maximum Integer Value of \( x \) Since \( x \) must be less than 3 and greater than 2, the largest integer value \( x \) can take is: \[ x = 2 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the value of \( x \) that satisfies the inequality is: \[ \boxed{2} \]
