We'll use the formula that is interchanging the base and
argument.
log(a) b = 1/log(b)
a
According to this formula, we'll
have:
log(2x)4 = 1/log(4) 2x
We'll
apply the product rule of logarithms:
1/log(4) 2x =1/[log(4) 2 +
log(4) x]
1/log(4) 2x =1/[1/log(2) 4 + 1/log(x)
4]
1/log(4) 2x =1/[1/2log(2) 2 + 1/2log(x)
2]
1/log(4) 2x =1/[1/2 + 1/2log(x)
2]
1/log(4) 2x =2log(x) 2/[log(x) 2 +
1]
But 1/log(4) 2x > 1 => 2log(x) 2/[log(x) 2 + 1]
> 1
2log(x) 2/[log(x) 2 + 1] - 1 >
0
[2log(x) 2 - log(x) 2 - 1]/[log(x) 2 + 1] - 1 >
0
[log(x) 2 - 1]/[log(x) 2 + 1] - 1 >
0
The fraction is positive if both, numerator and denominator are
positive.
log(x) 2 - 1 >
0
log(x) 2 > 1
2 >
x
log(x) 2 + 1 > 0
log(x) 2
> -1
2 > 1/x
2x >
1
x > 1/2
The
values of x for log(2x)4 > 1 belong to the intervals (1/2 ;
2).
