![((ln 81)/(ln [((ln c)/(ln [((ln b)/(ln [((ln d)/(ln ((ln c)/(ln a))))]))]))]))=b ab=c d=a+7 This gives us 4 equations with three unknowns. a=2,b=4,c=8,d=9 ((ln 81)/(ln [((ln 8)/(ln [((ln 4)/(ln [((ln 9)/(ln ((ln 8)/(ln 2))))]))]))]))= ((ln 81)/(ln [((ln 8)/(ln [((ln 4)/(ln [((ln 9)/(ln 3))]))]))]))= ((ln 81)/(ln [((ln 8)/(ln [((ln 4)/(ln 2))]))]))=((ln 81)/(ln [((ln 8)/(ln 2))]))=((ln 81)/(ln 3))=4=b So this satisfies the equation. However given the fact there are only 3 equation with 4 unknown we can assume value for one of the variable and calculate theothers. So i start by assuming b=e then i calculated the following using wolfram alpha caculator. b=e=2.7182818284590.. a=1.7296241323821... c=4.70160606890820.. d=8.7296241323821... abcd=196.96921294... So there is no unique solution. The above solution also meets the condition.](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q8735.png)
