Solution

The correct option is C 1
Consider the given equation.
e2x+e2x+ex+ex=3e2x+3ex
e4x+1+e3x+ex=3+3e3x
e3x(ex2)+1(ex2)=0(e3x+1)(ex2)=0

Here, e3x+1=0
e3x=1
This is not possible, so, this can't be the solution of the given equation.

ex2=0ex=2x=ln2

So, there is only one solution of this equation.

Hence, option c is the correct option.
