    The solution set of the equation \[{{\left[ 4\left( 1-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{9}-\frac{1}{27}+... \right) \right]}^{{{\log }_{2}}x}}\] \[={{\left[ 54\left( 1+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{27}+... \right) \right]}^{{{\log }_{x}}2}}\]is:

    A)  \[\left\{ 4,\frac{1}{4} \right\}\]

    B)         \[\left\{ 2,\frac{1}{2} \right\}\]

    C)         \[\{1,2\}\]         

    D)         \[\left\{ 8,\frac{1}{8} \right\}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\therefore \]  \[{{\left[ 4\left( -\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{9}-\frac{1}{27} \right)+... \right]}^{{{\log }_{2}}x}}\] \[={{\left[ 54\left( 1+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{27}+... \right) \right]}^{{{\log }_{x}}2}}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\left[ 4\left( \frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{3}} \right) \right]}^{{{\log }_{2}}x}}={{\left[ 54\left( \frac{1}{1-\frac{1}{3}} \right) \right]}^{{{\log }_{x}}2}}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\left[ 4\left( \frac{3}{4} \right) \right]}^{{{\log }_{2}}x}}={{\left[ 54\times \frac{3}{2} \right]}^{{{\log }_{x}}2}}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[{{3}^{{{\log }_{2}}x}}={{(81)}^{{{\log }_{x}}2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{3}^{{{\log }_{2}}x}}={{3}^{4{{\log }_{x}}2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\log }_{2}}x=4{{\log }_{x}}2\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\log }_{2}}x=\frac{4}{{{\log }_{2}}x}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{({{\log }_{2}}x)}^{2}}=4\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\log }_{2}}x=\pm \,2\] If \[{{\log }_{2}}x=+\,2,\] then      \[x={{2}^{2}}=4\] and if     \[{{\log }_{2}}x=-2,\] then      \[x={{2}^{-2}}=\frac{1}{4}\] \[\therefore \] Solution set of the equation \[=\left\{ 4,\frac{1}{4} \right\}.\]
