Biết phương trình \(\log _2^2x - 2{\log _2}\left( {2x} \right) - 1 = 0\) có hai nghiệm x₁, x₂. Tính x₁x₂.

ĐK: x > 0.

\(\log _2^2x - 2{\log _2}\left( {2x} \right) - 1 = 0\) ⇔ \(\log _2^2x - 2{\log _2}2 - 2{\log _2}x - 1 = 0\)

⇔ \(\log _2^2x - 2{\log _2}x - 3 = 0\) (*)

Đặt log₂x = t. Khi đó ta có:

(*) ⇔ \({t^2} - 2t - 3 = 0\) ⇔ (t + 1)(t – 3) = 0

⇔ \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{t + 1 = 0}\\{t - 3 = 0}\end{array}} \right.\) ⇔ \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{t = - 1}\\{t = 3}\end{array}} \right.\) ⇔ \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{{\log }_2}x = - 1}\\{{{\log }_2}x = 3}\end{array}} \right.\)

⇔ \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{x = {2^{ - 1}} = \frac{1}{2}\left( {tm} \right)}\\{x = {2^3} = 8\left( {tm} \right)}\end{array}} \right.\)

⇒ \({x_1}{x_2} = \frac{1}{2}.8 = 4.\)
