You can also use logic to solve this: if a^b =1, it is only possible in 3 cases: 1) a=1 2) a=-1 and b=even number 3) b=0 Now you get 3 case scenarios and solve for each and you will get 4 real solutions

Hey, this is something that's puzzling me and maybe it would make a good problem. Maybe not. Consider the sequence 0, 1, 4, 15, 56, 209, 780, 2911, 10864, .... s.t. a(0) = 0, a(1) = 1, and when n < 1 a(n) = 4a(n-1) - (n-2). Is it possible to construct a function s.t. f(n) = a(n) but without reference to previous values? So f(1) = 1, f(2) = 4, f(3) = 15, etc. (BTW this sequence is all integers x where 3x^2 + 1 = k^2 (k is an integer). If you use (a(n), a(n-1)) as m and n in Euclid's Pythagorean triples parameterization, you get close approximations of the 30-60-90 right triangle where 2a + 1 = c.)

The exponential function is defined only for a non-negative base, so x=0 and 1 are not solutions
@jpolowin02 ай бұрын
That isn't true for integer exponents, even in just the world of non-complex numbers. (-½)² is well-defined, for example: (-½) × (-½). Dealing with non-integer exponents requires complex math, but still gives solutions. x² - ½x -1 = 0 is just as solvable, via the binomial equation, as 2x² - x -2 = 0, despite the "b²" term.

@@yuryp6975 Nope. Raising negative numbers to integer powers is valid for any base in _any_ of the "usual" number sets (real, integer, complex, etc.). In integers, (-1)² is valid. In rationals, (-½)² is valid. In irrational numbers, (-π)² is valid (though of course its exact value can only be approximated). This is because raising things to integer powers is well-defined: _a^n_ = _a_ multiplied by itself _n_ times.

@@jpolowin0Agree with regards to integer exponent. So if the problem asked for integer solutions only (diophantine equation), there wiyld be no issues. If solving for real numbers, seens the finction shoud be defined across the domain.

@@yuryp6975 There are only three cases when _xʸ_ can be equal to 1. (a) _y_ = 0, for any _x._ (b) _x_ = 1, for any _y._ (c) _x_ = -1, when _y_ is any even integer. The "even integer" restriction in case (c) is implicit; that's the way numbers work. I'm rusty enough in my math skills that I'm uncertain if other cases might be possible in the complex domain, but I don't think there are. Within the reals... that's just the way it is. The function requires complex math for non-integers, but not for integers. Regardless of how you feel it "should" be for reals, the function is defined for integer exponents even when the base is negative. Its value is the negative number _x_ multiplied by itself _y_ times.

For (x^2-x-1)^(x^2-x) = 1 I would do: (x^2-x-1)^(x^2-x) = (x^2-x-1)^0 Now both sides have the same base Then: x^2 - 1 = 0; x(x-1) = 0; x 0 or x = 1; x = (0,1). Finding the solution(s) For x = 0; then (0^2-0-1)^(0^2-0)=1; 1=1; For x = 1; then (1^2-1-1)^(1^2-1)=1; 1=1; Therefore, x(0, 1) are solutions.

Well, Mr Syber, I have not even looked at your solution, yet, though it will doubtless be elegant and accurate. But there is some silly behaviour going on in your class... Now look, you lot. The expression in the bracket differs by 1 from the exponent, to we could write it t^(t+1)., and this will equal 1 only if t=1, or if t=-1 (with even power), or if the exponent = 0, which actually it will do if t=-1.. If t=1, then x=2 or x= -1 two solutions and if t=-1, then x=0 or x=1, two more solutions Four solutions, therefore, x = 2, or 1, or 0 or -1. Complex solutions? Who knows? De Moivre, perhaps. And if Lambert's getting in on this act, I'm out of here.
