Prove that the product of the roots of $x^{log_{2016}x}*sqrt{2016}=x^{2016}$ is a Natural Number.



This is my solution:



by putting $log_{2016}$ on both sides we get:
$log^2{_{2016}}x-2016log_{2016}x=-log_{2016}sqrt{2016}$



then by putting $log_{2016}x$ in front of bracket on left side, then removing $log_{2016}$ from both sides and squaring the equation, and $t=log_{2016}x$
$t^2-4032t+2016^2-2016=0$



solving for $t_{1/2}$ we get:
$x_1 = 2016^{12left(168+sqrt{14}right)}$
$x_2 = 2016^{12left(168-sqrt{14}right)}$
$x_1 * x_2 = 2016^{4032}$



Is my solution correct? (I think I might have a mistake because I haven't solved this type of problem before, and overall I just started practicing). And if correct is there a better/easier way to solve it?

We have that



$$y=log_{2016}x iff 2016^y=x implies x^y=2016^{y^2}$$



$$x^{log_{2016}x}cdot sqrt{2016}=x^{2016} iff 2016^{y^2}cdot sqrt{2016}=2016^{2016y}$$



$$2016^{(y^2-2016y)} =frac{1}{sqrt{2016}} iff y^2-2016y=frac12$$

    Apparently, I could've solved it a lot easier. Thanks to @lulu for providing the link.



    $x^{log_{2016}x}*sqrt{2016}=x^{2016}$



    By taking $log_{2016}$ of both sides we get:



    $log^2{_{2016}}x-2016log_{2016}x+1/2=0$
    $t^2-2016t+1/2=0$



    Let r, s be the roots of the original problem, we have:



    $log_{2016} rs = log_{2016} r + log_{2016} s = 2016 => rs = 2016^{2016}$
