l o g 4 ​ x 5 = 20 l o g 4 ​ x 5 = l o g 4 ​ 4 20 ⟺ x 5 = 4 20 x 5 = 4 4 ⋅ 5 x 5 = ( 4 4 ) 5 ⟺ x = 4 4 ⇒ x = 256 D : x ∈ R +

To solve lo g 4 ​ ( x 5 ) = 20 , we convert it to exponential form and find x 5 = 4 20 . This gives us x = 256 after simplifying. The solution is valid as x must be positive.
