1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to solve several exponential equations. Let's solve the first equation (i) 22x5(2x)+4=02^{2x} - 5(2^x) + 4 = 0.

2. Solution Steps

(i) 22x5(2x)+4=02^{2x} - 5(2^x) + 4 = 0
Let u=2xu = 2^x. Then the equation becomes u25u+4=0u^2 - 5u + 4 = 0.
We can factor the quadratic as (u1)(u4)=0(u - 1)(u - 4) = 0.
Therefore, u=1u = 1 or u=4u = 4.
If u=1u = 1, then 2x=1=202^x = 1 = 2^0, so x=0x = 0.
If u=4u = 4, then 2x=4=222^x = 4 = 2^2, so x=2x = 2.

3. Final Answer

x=0,2x = 0, 2
