Problem

There exist real numbers xx and yy, both greater than 1, such that logx(yx)=logy(x4y)=10\log_x\left(y^x\right)=\log_y\left(x^{4y}\right)=10. Find xyxy.

解析

Solution 1

By properties of logarithms, we can simplify the given equation to xlogxy=4ylogyx=10x\log_xy=4y\log_yx=10. Let us break this into two separate equations:

xlogxy=10x\log_xy=10 4ylogyx=10.4y\log_yx=10. We multiply the two equations to get:

4xy(logxylogyx)=100.4xy\left(\log_xy\log_yx\right)=100. Also by properties of logarithms, we know that logablogba=1\log_ab\cdot\log_ba=1; thus, logxylogyx=1\log_xy\cdot\log_yx=1. Therefore, our equation simplifies to:

4xy=100    xy=025.4xy=100\implies xy=\boxed{025}. ~Technodoggo

Solution 2

Convert the two equations into exponents:

x10=yx (1)x^{10}=y^x~(1) y10=x4y (2).y^{10}=x^{4y}~(2). Take (1)(1) to the power of 1x\frac{1}{x}:

x10x=y.x^{\frac{10}{x}}=y. Plug this into (2)(2):

x(10x)(10)=x4(x10x)x^{(\frac{10}{x})(10)}=x^{4(x^{\frac{10}{x}})} 100x=4x10x{\frac{100}{x}}={4x^{\frac{10}{x}}} 25x=x10x=y,{\frac{25}{x}}={x^{\frac{10}{x}}}=y, So xy=025xy=\boxed{025}

Solution 3

Similar to solution 2, we have:

x10=yxx^{10}=y^x and y10=x4yy^{10}=x^{4y}

Take the tenth root of the first equation to get

x=yx10x=y^{\frac{x}{10}}

Substitute into the second equation to get

y10=y4xy10y^{10}=y^{\frac{4xy}{10}}

This means that 10=4xy1010=\frac{4xy}{10}, or 100=4xy100=4xy, meaning that xy=025xy=\boxed{025}.

Solution 4

The same with other solutions, we have obtained x10=yxx^{10}=y^x and y10=x4yy^{10}=x^{4y}. Then, x10y10=yxx4yx^{10}y^{10}=y^xx^{4y}. So, an obvious solution is to have x10=x4yx^{10}=x^{4y} and y10=yxy^{10}=y^{x}. Solving, we get x=10x=10 and y=2.5y=2.5.So xy=025xy = \boxed{025}.

Note: This is not a correct solution. Plugging in x=10x=10 and y=2.5y=2.5 does not satisfy the equations.

Solution 5(fakesolve)

Using the first expression, we see that x10=yxx^{10} = y^x. Now, taking the log of both sides, we get logy(x10)=logy(yx)\log_y(x^{10}) = \log_y(y^x). This simplifies to 10logy(x)=x10 \log_y(x) = x. This is still equal to the second equation in the problem statement, so 10logy(x)=x=4ylogy(x)10 \log_y(x) = x = 4y \log_y(x). Dividing by logy(x)\log_y(x) on both sides, we get x=4y=10x = 4y = 10. Therefore, x=10x = 10 and y=2.5y = 2.5, so xy=025xy = \boxed{025}.

Solution 6

Let

y=xay=x^a .We see:

ax=10ax=10 and

4xa/a=104x^a/a=10 which gives rise to

xy=025xy = \boxed{025} .
