you have asked 2^x =10x. it is solved  generally for a^x =bx. so please don′t   post similar questions like  2^x =4x,   2^x =5x etc...

let 2^x =p  ⇒x=(√p)  p=4(√p)  take square to both side  p^2 =16p  p=16, then  2^x =16  2^x =2^4   x=4.
$${let}\:\mathrm{2}^{{x}} ={p} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=\sqrt{{p}} \\ $$$${p}=\mathrm{4}\sqrt{{p}} \\ $$$${take}\:{square}\:{to}\:{both}\:{side} \\ $$$${p}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{16}{p} \\ $$$${p}=\mathrm{16},\:{then} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}^{{x}} =\mathrm{16} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}^{{x}} =\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$${x}=\mathrm{4}. \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$ \\ $$

x=0.3099 is solution too.
$${x}=\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{3099}\:{is}\:{solution}\:{too}. \\ $$

please check following step sir:  let 2^x =p  ⇒x=(√p)  should it not be x=log_2  p ?

no, that is what it will be but you can try it by using in   your own way

2^x =p ⇒x=(√p) is wrong.   not i say that, but the mathematics   says that.   IT IS NOT PERSONAL sir.

let 2^x =y−−−1  x=log_2 y−−−2  equate eqn 2 by eqn1  y=4log_2 y,then divide both side by 4  (y/4)=log_2 y⇒y=2^(y/4) −−−3  sub eqn 3 into eqn 1  2^x =2^(y/4)   x=(y/4)−−−4  let y=16,then  x=((16)/4)⇒x=4.
$${let}\:\mathrm{2}^{{x}} ={y}−−−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$${x}={log}_{\mathrm{2}} {y}−−−\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${equate}\:{eqn}\:\mathrm{2}\:{by}\:{eqn}\mathrm{1} \\ $$$${y}=\mathrm{4}{log}_{\mathrm{2}} {y},{then}\:{divide}\:{both}\:{side}\:{by}\:\mathrm{4} \\ $$$$\frac{{y}}{\mathrm{4}}={log}_{\mathrm{2}} {y}\Rightarrow{y}=\mathrm{2}^{\frac{{y}}{\mathrm{4}}} −−−\mathrm{3} \\ $$$${sub}\:{eqn}\:\mathrm{3}\:{into}\:{eqn}\:\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}^{{x}} =\mathrm{2}^{\frac{{y}}{\mathrm{4}}} \\ $$$${x}=\frac{{y}}{\mathrm{4}}−−−\mathrm{4} \\ $$$${let}\:{y}=\mathrm{16},{then} \\ $$$${x}=\frac{\mathrm{16}}{\mathrm{4}}\Rightarrow{x}=\mathrm{4}. \\ $$

2^x =4x  e^(xln 2) =4x  (−xln 2)e^(−xln 2) =−((ln 2)/4)  −xln 2=W(−((ln 2)/4))  ⇒x=−((W(−((ln 2)/4)))/(ln 2))          = { ((−((−2.77258872)/(ln 2))=4)),((−((−0.21481112)/(ln 2))=0.309907)) :}    generally for  a^x =bx  ⇒x=−((W(−((ln a)/b)))/(ln a))
