Quadratic EquationHard

Question

Let (x0, y0) be solution of the following equations
    (2x)ln2 = (3y)ln3
    3lnx = 2lny
Then x0 is

Options

A.1/6
B.1/3
C.1/2
D.6

Solution

(2x)ln2 = (3y)ln3       .........(i)
3lnx = 2lny             .........(ii)
⇒ (log x) (log 3) = (log y) (log 2)
⇒ log y        .........(iii)
In (i) taking log both sides
(log 2) {log 2 + log x} = log3{log 3 + log y}
(log 2)2 + (log 2) (log x) = (log 3)2 + from (iii)
⇒ (log 2)2 - (log 3)2 = (log x) ⇒ - log 2 = log x
⇒ x = 1/2 ⇒ x0 = 1/2
