Math related question: 6^x=24x^2

I know the answer(s) from Wolfram, just not the actual steps for getting there, I've checked the sticky and I can't fucking find an exact video on the subject

Thanks /sci/

It appears that as time progresses, our mastery of the sciences proceeds generally from the pure to the applied.

The slow but steady development of mathematics from ancient times through to the modern era laid the foundation for remarkable advances in physics during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This new understanding of physics allowed for equally remarkable advances in chemistry during the latter half of the 20th century. Now, our knowledge of physics and chemistry has started a new revolution in biology and medicine.

Do you think that, later this century/early in the next, our vastly-expanded knowledge of biology in medicine will allow the social sciences to undergo a revolution similar to those of the physical sciences?

Mathematics is just applied Computer Science

Chemistry is applied physics just like biology is applied chemistry.

OP:
Oddly, this is in exactly the same order, with mathematicians being somewhere around 28, based on personal experience.

I want to major in Math. What kind of jobs can I get with a Math major? How difficult is it to be a successful Math undergrad?

more purity= more (creative) logic less remembering handwavy rules

therefore more purity needs higher IQ, less purity needs better memory

engineering is mostly newtonian physics (simple shit) and applied maths
but physics>all else

Hey, /sci/. First-time poster here. Anyways, I have to ask something before officially changing my major: How viable is the job market to someone with a degree in Mathematics? I am currently a Physics major, but thanks to legislation passed by my state, my school is being forced to drop that degree path.

Can a Mathematics undergraduate degree be used to get into an engineering graduate program? Would I be better off getting a degree in something like Mathematical Sciences?

The job-market question applies to both an undergraduate degree, as well as a graduate degree.

Hey /sci/.
I was just wondering, do you think would there be any advantages to adopting a new base number system?
I once heard someone say that a base-12 numerical system would be advantageous in mathematics for some reason I can't remember.
Math general I suppose.

you guis know that maths was considered a part of philosophy until the industrial revolution, and it is based on logic which ultimately comes from philosophy

Taking this picture into account, sociology influences human endeavors most directly. But I suppose something like human resource management and everything else that we do could be applied sociology. :S
