The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( x^{\log_3 x^2 + (\log_3 x)^2 - 10} = \frac{1}{x^2} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the equation Start by rewriting the right side of the equation: \[ x^{\log_3 x^2 + (\log_3 x)^2 - 10} = x^{-2} \] ### Step 2: Set the exponents equal Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other: \[ \log_3 x^2 + (\log_3 x)^2 - 10 = -2 \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation Rearranging gives us: \[ \log_3 x^2 + (\log_3 x)^2 = 8 \] Using the property of logarithms, \( \log_3 x^2 = 2 \log_3 x \), we can substitute: \[ 2 \log_3 x + (\log_3 x)^2 = 8 \] ### Step 4: Let \( y = \log_3 x \) Let \( y = \log_3 x \). The equation now becomes: \[ 2y + y^2 = 8 \] Rearranging gives: \[ y^2 + 2y - 8 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Factor the quadratic equation Now we can factor the quadratic: \[ (y + 4)(y - 2) = 0 \] Setting each factor to zero gives: \[ y + 4 = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad y - 2 = 0 \] Thus: \[ y = -4 \quad \text{or} \quad y = 2 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( x \) Recall that \( y = \log_3 x \). Therefore: 1. For \( y = -4 \): \[ \log_3 x = -4 \implies x = 3^{-4} = \frac{1}{81} \] 2. For \( y = 2 \): \[ \log_3 x = 2 \implies x = 3^2 = 9 \] ### Final Answers The solutions for \( x \) are: \[ x = \frac{1}{81} \quad \text{and} \quad x = 9 \]
