Let the curves $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ respectively represent $y = \log_2x$ and $\log_4x$.
Let the line $y=k$ intersect $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ respectively at the points $P$ and $Q$. If $\overline{PQ} = 20$, what are the $x$ coordinates of $P$ and $Q$?
I know that $\log_4x = \frac12\log_2x$ and that the curve grows slower than $\log_2x$, but I think I'm missing something here because I don't see any solution. :P
$\log_4 k = \log_2 (k-20)$
$\rightarrow \ln 4 \ln (k-20) = \ln 2 \ln k $
$\rightarrow 2 \ln (k-20) = \ln k $
$\rightarrow (k-20)^2 = k$
$\rightarrow k = 25$
