9^x +6^x =4^x ⇒((9/4))^x +((6/4))^x =1  (((3/2))^2 )^x +((3/2))^x =1⇔((3/2))^(2x) +((3/2))^x =1  let u=((3/2))^x ⇒u^2 +u=1   u^2 +u−1=0 ⇒ △=1+4=5   u_1 =((−1+(√5))/2)  >0  and u_2 =((−1−(√5))/2)<0   ⇒((3/2))^x =((−1+(√5))/2) ⇒ln(((3/2))^x )=ln(((−1+(√5))/2) )   xln((3/2))=ln(((−1+(√5))/2) )   x=((ln(((−1+(√5))/2) ))/(ln((3/2))))= log_(3/2) (((−1+(√5))/2))   something went wrong in the question   the equation is 4^x +6^x =9^x    this one gives us x=log_(3/2) (((1+(√5))/2))
