Yes sir, but it is the workings i don′t know sir.

Yessir,butitistheworkingsidontknowsir.

i “see” the solution r=2, p=9.  it is expected that you can see the  solution, not calculate. if the second  eqn. is r+p=12, you can not see and  also not calculate the solution.

iseethesolutionr=2,p=9.itisexpectedthatyoucanseethesolution,notcalculate.ifthesecondeqn.isr+p=12,youcannotseeandalsonotcalculatethesolution.

Put log_r 8=a,log_3 p=b.We get  8=r^a ,p=3^b  (r>0,r≠1,p>0)   { ((a+b=5(1))),((3^b +8^(1/a) =11(2))) :}  From (1) we get b=5−a ,replace into  (2) we get 3^(5−a) +8^(1/a) −11=0(1).we need to  have r=8^(1/a) <11⇒a>((ln8)/(ln11))≈0.8671.  Putting f(a)=3^(5−a) +8^(1/a) −11.It is easy to see  that f(3)=0,so a=3 is root of eqs.(1)  we will prove it is unique root.Indeed,  f ′(a)=−ln3×3^(5−a) +8^(1/a) (−(1/a^2 ))<0∀a∈(((ln8)/(ln11));+∞)  hence a=3 is unique root of eqs.(1)  ⇒b=2.From that we get r=2,p=9

Putlogr8=a,log3p=b.Weget8=ra,p=3b(r>0,r1,p>0){a+b=5(1)3b+81a=11(2)From(1)wegetb=5a,replaceinto(2)weget35a+81a11=0(1).weneedtohaver=81a<11a>ln8ln110.8671.Puttingf(a)=35a+81a11.Itiseasytoseethatf(3)=0,soa=3isrootofeqs.(1)wewillproveitisuniqueroot.Indeed,f(a)=ln3×35a+81a(1a2)<0a(ln8ln11;+)hencea=3isuniquerootofeqs.(1)b=2.Fromthatwegetr=2,p=9
