Log (x²-6) = 1+log (x-3)
log (x²-6) = log 10 + log (x-3) (log 10=1)
log (x²-6) = log (10 (x-3)) (log a+log b=log (a*b))
Then:
x²-6=10 (x-3)
x²-6=10x-30
x²-10x+24=0
x=[10⁺₋√ (100-96) ]/2
= (10⁺₋2) / 2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁ = (10-2) / 2=4
We can check it out this solution:
log (4²-6) = log (16-6) = log 10=1
1+log (x-3) = 1+log (4-3) = 1 + log 1=1+0=1
This solution is rigth.
x₂ = (10+2) / 2=6
We can check it out this possible solution:
log (6²-6) = log (36-6) = log 30≈1.477121255
1+log (x-3) = 1+log (6-3) = 1 + log 3=1.477121255
This solution is right too.
Answer: we have two solutions; x₁=4 and x₂=6.
