when i first saw this question and tried to solve it, I divided by e^2x on both sides. Interestingly, after rearranging the variable terms, we can get the equation for sinh. idk if it's cheating but I just took the arcsinh(1/2) to get the same answer. I think it's pretty cool that seemingly unrelated mathematical concepts like hyperbolic trig and golden ratio can unexpectedly unify

Let e^x = y. Then the equation becomes y + y^2 = y^3, which is the same as y^3 - y^2 - y = 0. Factor out a y: y(y^2 - y - 1) = 0. Therefore y = 0 or y^2 - y - 1 = 0. The second equation leads to y being (1+sqrt5)/2 or (1-sqrt5)/2. Since e^x = y, y cannot be 0 or negative (since the real logarithm function is undefined for those), so x must be ln(1+sqrt5) - ln2

@@maths3239 When you say “the second solution” I assume you mean the ones you mentioned in your original comment? (If you meant the other one then let me know and I’ll explain that one too.) Your set of solutions actually comes from the other half of the quadratic formula: i.e. e^x = (1-√5)/2. BPRP ignored this solution in the video because it has no real solutions for x; however, complex solutions do exist! To find them, we first need to remember two very important facts: e^(πi) = -1 and e^(2πi) = 1. From here, you can keep multiplying these together however many times you like, to see that e^(nπi) = -1 for any odd n - or, to write it another way, e^(-(2k+1)πi) = -1 for any k∈Z. (The negative in front of 2k+1 is not necessary, it will just make it easier to simplify later.) Now, like I said earlier, e^x = (1-√5)/2 has no real solution because (1-√5)/2 is negative… BUT what we can do is multiply both sides by -1: e^x • -1 = (√5 - 1)/2 Now the RHS is positive so we can take logs (later). But first let’s replace that -1 with e^(-(2k+1)πi) from earlier: e^x • e^(-(2k+1)πi)= (√5 - 1)/2 This simplifies to: e^(x - (2k+1)πi) = (√5 - 1)/2 And NOW we take logs of both sides: x - (2k+1)πi = ln((√5 - 1)/2) Finally: x = ln((√5 - 1)/2) + (2k+1)πi exactly as required. Note that this solution is never real for any integer k.

I have a question (out of real solutions). If we replace e^x = u, then we would have u+u^2 = u^3, does that mean that the first equation has 3 solutions? 1 real solution and 2 complex solutions? Because when I try to solve all the 3 solutions by factoring I get an impossible solution: e^x = 0, which is not possible. So does that mean that, even if you have an equation of grade 3, maybe you don't get 3 solutions even in complex numbers?

Very nice. Edit: sign mistake, oops As corrected by Michael Vogel, e^iπ2k = 1, so ln1 = iπ2k for k in Z. lnφ = ln1 + lnφ, so iπ2k + lnφ for k in Z are also complex solutions!

"Approaches" is not the same as being "equal to". As x approaches - infinity, e^x approaches zero. But since x can never actually BE - infinity, then e^x can never BE zero.
@Faxbable2 жыл бұрын
Actually, if infinites _would be_ acceptable solutions (however they cannot be acceptable as one has to solve this equation over real numbers, which doesn't contain infinities), then infinities would be solutions. A better way to show that for -infty is not dividing initial equation by exp(x) but put variable change X := exp(x). As a result, we get X + X^2 = X^3, that may rewrite X^3 - X^2 - X = 0, or X(X^2 - X -1)=0, which has the three solutions : 0, phi and (1-sqrt(5))/2. So that X=exp(x)=0 implies x=-infty. But there is not "algebraic method" to find out x=+infty, which suggests that it is very questionable to accept infinities as possible solutions. (About X = (1-sqrt(5))/2 that is a negative number, this is less questionable to find out complex solutions but quite difficult as complex function EXP is not injective: there are actually an infinity of complex solutions.)

I don't get the argument that you will admit only the solution with the plus sign. If you assume x is complex, you can just do the grind, and get that one solution is x1 = ln((1+sqrt(5))/2), which is real (about 0.48121), and the other is complex, x2 = ln((1-sqrt(5))/2), which then turns out to be x2 = -x1 + i pi. which is equal to -0.48121+ i pi. But for that one needs to do a trick that is only possible with the golden ratio, namely: if m1 = (1+sqrt(5))/2 (golden ratio) and m2=(1-sqrt(5))/2, then it turns out that m2 = -1/m1 . In taking the logarithm, make use of log(-1) = i Pi, and one gets: x2 = log(m2) = log(-1/m1) = log(-1) - log(m1) = -log(m1) + i Pi

I would strongly caution against teaching this method. I solved this by substituting u=e^x, then solved the trinomial u^3-u^2-u=0. It has 3 distinct roots, u = (0, (1+sqrt(5))/2, (1-sqrt(5))/2), where you use back-substitution to get a solution in terms of x. Your method works here coincidentally because zero can be eliminated as a solution since ln(0) is undefined. You very quickly glossed over why your method would work for this solution. I don't think a student seeing this for the first time is going to catch why you can do it for this special case but not others. I think the teaching method here is going to inadvertently teach bad practice for the simple reason that, in the world of polynomials, x^3-x^2-x=0 and x^2-x-1=0 are NOT equivalent and a graph of the two functions readily shows this. A much better way to go is to factor out a u so that you have u(u^2-u-1)=0, then show why u=0 can be eliminated as a solution when using back-substitution to get an answer in terms of x (you probably want to show that the equation e^x=0 can be converted to ln(e^x)=x=ln(0), which is a no-go because ln(0) is undefined; just saying e^x cannot be zero is less straightforward, less likely to be remembered, and doesn't really hit the crux of the problem).

nah, you're wrong it's perfectly fine to divide the whole equation by a non-zero factor and he does in fact mention that e^x is always non-zero, so I see absolutely no problem with this approach ("Your method works here coincidentally because zero can be eliminated as a solution since ln(0) is undefined." lol ok dude, that's equivalent to what he said)

@@Mmmm1ch43l What I said is that this approach teaches bad habits to students. It's a shortcut, and a very poor one.

@@Skank_and_Gutterboy yeah I understand what you said, but I disagree it's a perfectly legitimate and sensible "shortcut" and is explained adequately for example: your point that "x^3-x^2-x=0 and x^2-x-1=0 are NOT equivalent" is extremely overblown sure, these polynomials *look* different, but they have the exact same solution set (apart from x=0 of course) so reducing the former problem to the latter is 100% fine

e**×(1+e**x)=e**3× Extracting ROOT X, We have e**x=e**2-1 LN (e**x) = LN(e**2-1) X= LN (e**2 -1)
