Solving a logarithmic equation by converting equation to exponential form

The video tutorial explains how to solve a logarithmic equation where two times log base 4 of X equals 1. The instructor discusses two methods: using the one-to-one property or converting to exponential form. The logarithm is rewritten by applying logarithmic rules, allowing conversion to exponential form. The solution is found by solving the equation, emphasizing the importance of considering only positive values, as negative results are not valid in this context.

What is the significance of including 'plus or minus' when solving the equation?

Why is negative two not a valid solution for the equation derived from 'two times log base 4 of X = 1'?
