4^x-3*2^x-4<0

Solution

4^{x} - 3 \cdot 2^{x} - 4 < 0

Solution

x < 2

+1

Solution steps

4^{x} - 3 \cdot 2^{x} - 4 < 0

Apply exponent rules

(2^{x})^{2} - 3 \cdot 2^{x} - 4 < 0

Let

u = 2^{x}

u^{2} - 3 u - 4 < 0

u^{2} - 3 u - 4 < 0 : - 1 < u < 4

- 1 < u < 4

Substitute back

u = 2^{x}

- 1 < 2^{x} < 4

If

a < u < b

then

a < u and u < b

- 1 < 2^{x} and 2^{x} < 4

- 1 < 2^{x} :

True for all

x

2^{x} < 4 : x < 2

Combine the intervals

True for all x and x < 2

Merge Overlapping Intervals

x < 2
