Not only is it possible to satisfy
Explanation:
We can graph the two expressions and see where they intersect. And they do intersect twice and so there are 2 sets of
graph{(y-2^x)(y-3x)=0[0,5,-5,15]}
However, usually we restrict discussions of multiples to positive integers (and so 3, 6, 9, 12, and so on are multiples of 3) and there is no value of
