 let  { ((log _2 (x)=u)),((log _x (2)=(1/u))) :}   ⇒u+(1/u) = e+e^(−1)   ⇒u^2 −(e+e^(−1) )u+1=0  ⇒u = ((e+e^(−1) ± (√(e^2 +e^(−2) −2)))/2)  ⇒u = ((e+e^(−1)  ± (√((e−e^(−1) )^2 )))/2)  ⇒ { ((u_1 = e⇒log _2 (x)=e⇒x=2^e )),((u_2 =e^(−1) ⇒log _2 (x)=e^(−1) ⇒x=2^(1/e) )) :}

$$\:{let}\:\begin{cases}{\mathrm{log}\:_{\mathrm{2}} \left({x}\right)={u}}\\{\mathrm{log}\:_{{x}} \left(\mathrm{2}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{u}}}\end{cases} \\ $$$$\:\Rightarrow{u}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{u}}\:=\:{e}+{e}^{−\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{u}^{\mathrm{2}} −\left({e}+{e}^{−\mathrm{1}} \right){u}+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{u}\:=\:\frac{{e}+{e}^{−\mathrm{1}} \pm\:\sqrt{{e}^{\mathrm{2}} +{e}^{−\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{u}\:=\:\frac{{e}+{e}^{−\mathrm{1}} \:\pm\:\sqrt{\left({e}−{e}^{−\mathrm{1}} \right)^{\mathrm{2}} }}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\begin{cases}{{u}_{\mathrm{1}} =\:{e}\Rightarrow\mathrm{log}\:_{\mathrm{2}} \left({x}\right)={e}\Rightarrow{x}=\mathrm{2}^{{e}} }\\{{u}_{\mathrm{2}} ={e}^{−\mathrm{1}} \Rightarrow\mathrm{log}\:_{\mathrm{2}} \left({x}\right)={e}^{−\mathrm{1}} \Rightarrow{x}=\mathrm{2}^{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{e}}} }\end{cases} \\ $$

log_2 x+log_x 2=((e^2 +1)/e)    log_2 x+(1/(log_2 x))=e+(1/e)  log_2 x=e,(1/e)⇒x=2^e ,2^(1/e)

$$\mathrm{log}_{\mathrm{2}} {x}+\mathrm{log}_{{x}} \mathrm{2}=\frac{{e}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}}{{e}}\:\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{log}_{\mathrm{2}} {x}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{log}_{\mathrm{2}} {x}}={e}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{e}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{log}_{\mathrm{2}} {x}={e},\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{e}}\Rightarrow{x}=\mathrm{2}^{{e}} ,\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{1}/{e}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$

how about  { ((log _2 (x)=(1/e))),((log _x (2)=e)) :} ?

$${how}\:{about}\:\begin{cases}{\mathrm{log}\:_{\mathrm{2}} \left({x}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{e}}}\\{\mathrm{log}\:_{{x}} \left(\mathrm{2}\right)={e}}\end{cases}\:? \\ $$

You′re right! I extended my answer.

$${You}'{re}\:{right}!\:{I}\:{extended}\:{my}\:{answer}. \\ $$
