2^x +2^(3x) =16 let 2^x =m m+m^3 =16 m^3 +m−16=0 let f(x)=m^3 +m−16 f^′ (x)=3m^2 +1 let the initial guess m be 0 using nri m_1 =m_0 −((f(x))/(f^′ (x))) m=2.387686553... 2^x =m 2^x =2.387686553... x=((ln2.387686553...)/(ln2)) x≈1.255613

let t=2^x t^3 +t−16=0 Δ=(1/(27))+64>0 (√Δ)=((√(5187))/9) ⇒t=((((√(5187))/9)+8))^(1/3) −((((√(5187))/9)−8))^(1/3) ⇒x=log_2 (((((√(5187))/9)+8))^(1/3) −((((√(5187))/9)−8))^(1/3) ) ≈1.255613

$${let}\:{t}=\mathrm{2}^{{x}} \\ $$$${t}^{\mathrm{3}} +{t}−\mathrm{16}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Delta=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{27}}+\mathrm{64}>\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\sqrt{\Delta}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5187}}}{\mathrm{9}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{t}=\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5187}}}{\mathrm{9}}+\mathrm{8}}−\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5187}}}{\mathrm{9}}−\mathrm{8}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=\mathrm{log}_{\mathrm{2}} \:\left(\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5187}}}{\mathrm{9}}+\mathrm{8}}−\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5187}}}{\mathrm{9}}−\mathrm{8}}\right) \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\approx\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{255613} \\ $$
