First, we can use the properties of logarithms to combine the two logarithms on the left side of the equation:
log2((8x-3)/5) = 1
Next, we can rewrite the logarithmic equation in exponential form:
2^1 = (8x-3)/5
Simplify:
2 = (8x-3)/5
Multiply both sides by 5:
10 = 8x - 3
Add 3 to both sides:
13 = 8x
Divide by 8:
x = 13/8
Therefore, the solution to the equation log2(8x-3) - log2(5) = 1 is x = 13/8.
