the equation log2xlog2 x23 has the solution 27 The equation
the equation log2x+log2 (x+2)=3 has the solution:
Solution
log2x + log2(x+2)=3
we have to use log property which is
log a + log b=log ab
log2(x(x+2))=3
writing it in exponential form
x(x+2)=23
x2 + 2x -8=0
(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=-4,x=2
log cant take negative value. Therefore we have to ignore x=-4
Hence the answer is x=2
