4194304\times 4^{2x}=4
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
4^{2x}=\frac{1}{1048576}
Divide both sides by 4194304.
\log(4^{2x})=\log(\frac{1}{1048576})
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
2x\log(4)=\log(\frac{1}{1048576})
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
2x=\frac{\log(\frac{1}{1048576})}{\log(4)}
Divide both sides by \log(4).
2x=\log_{4}\left(\frac{1}{1048576}\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
x=-\frac{10}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
