3^x  is monotounously increasing.  10−log_2 x is monotounously decreasing.  ⇒3^x =10−log_2 x has at most 1 soln.  by inspection x=2 is a solution  ⇒The only solution is x=2.

$$\mathrm{3}^{{x}} \:{is}\:{monotounously}\:{increasing}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{10}−{log}_{\mathrm{2}} {x}\:{is}\:{monotounously}\:{decreasing}. \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{3}^{{x}} =\mathrm{10}−{log}_{\mathrm{2}} {x}\:{has}\:{at}\:{most}\:\mathrm{1}\:{soln}. \\ $$$${by}\:{inspection}\:{x}=\mathrm{2}\:{is}\:{a}\:{solution} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{The}\:{only}\:{solution}\:{is}\:{x}=\mathrm{2}. \\ $$
