To solve this inequality, we first need to combine the two logarithms using the properties of logarithms.
log28(x) + log28(x-27) < 1
Using the product rule of logarithms, we can combine the two logarithms:
log28(x(x-27)) < 1
Now, we can rewrite the inequality using exponential form:
x(x-27) < 28
Expanding the left side, we get:
x^2 - 27x < 28
Rearranging the inequality, we get:
x^2 - 27x - 28 < 0
Now, we can solve this quadratic inequality by factoring or using the quadratic formula.
Factoring the quadratic, we get:
(x-28)(x+1) < 0
This means that the solutions to the inequality are x < -1 and 28. However, we also need to consider the constraint on the argument of the logarithm:
x > 0x-27 > 0x > 27
Combining the two constraints x > 27 and x < 28, we get the final solution:
27 < x < 28
