Leta, b, cbe the three distinct positive real numbers such that2alogea=bclogebandbloge2=alogecThen6a+5bcis equal to ______.

Answer:
8.00
Solution:

Given equation: 2alna=bclnb

lna·ln2a=lnb·lnbc

lna·ln2+lna=lnb·lnb+lnc

let lna=x, lnb=y, lnc=z, xyz

xln2+x=yy+z

xln2=y2-x2+yz ........(i)

Similarly, from second equation

ln2·lnb=lnc·lna

ln2=xzy ......(ii)

Substitute eqii in eqi,

We get,

y3-yx2+y2z=x2z

y2y+z-x2y+z=0

y2-x2y+z=0

x-yx+yy+z=0

 xyx+yy+z=0

Now x=-y, y=-z and x=z

But ln2=xzy

ln2=xx-x

ln2=-lna

=-ln 2a=12 and

y=-z

lnb=-lnc

bc=1

Now 6a+5bc=612+51=8

Hence this is the required answer.
