Full solution

Q. y=log2(4x25x+1)y=\log_{2}(4x^{2}-5x+1)
  1. Identify key elements: Identify the base bb, the argument xx, and the result yy in the logarithmic equation.\newlineThe equation is in the form logb(x)=y\log_b(x) = y, where bb is the base of the logarithm, xx is the argument, and yy is the result.\newlineFor y=log2(4x25x+1)y=\log_2(4x^2-5x+1), the base bb is 22, the argument xx is xx11, and the result yy is yy.
  2. Convert to exponential form: Convert the logarithmic equation to its exponential form.\newlineThe exponential form of a logarithmic equation logb(x)=y\log_b(x) = y is by=xb^y = x.\newlineSubstitute b=2b=2, y=yy=y, and x=(4x25x+1)x=(4x^2-5x+1) into the exponential form.\newlineExponential equation: 2y=4x25x+12^y = 4x^2-5x+1
  3. Check for correctness: Check the exponential equation to ensure it is correctly formed and matches the original logarithmic equation.\newlineThe original logarithmic equation was y=log2(4x25x+1)y=\log_2(4x^2-5x+1), and the exponential form is 2y=4x25x+12^y = 4x^2-5x+1.\newlineBoth equations represent the same relationship between yy and the expression (4x25x+1)(4x^2-5x+1), so the conversion is correct.
