To solve for x in the equation 2log3(-x)=1+log3(x+6), we can first use the properties of logarithms to simplify the equation.
Now, we have a quadratic equation 0 = x^2 + 2x + 6. We can solve this using the quadratic formula:
x = [-b ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)] / 2x = [-2 ± sqrt(2^2 - 4(1)(6))] / 2(1x = [-2 ± sqrt(4 - 24)] / x = [-1 ± sqrt(-20)] / x = (-1 ± √20i) / 2
Therefore, the solutions for x are:
x = (-1 + √20i) / x = (-1 - √20i) / 2
So, the solutions for x are complex numbers.
To solve for x in the equation 2log3(-x)=1+log3(x+6), we can first use the properties of logarithms to simplify the equation.
Use the log rule log_a(x) + log_a(y) = log_a(xy2log3(-x) = log3((-x)^2
2log3(-x) = log3(x^2
-2x = x^2+
0 = x^2 + 2x + 6
Now, we have a quadratic equation 0 = x^2 + 2x + 6. We can solve this using the quadratic formula:
x = [-b ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)] / 2
x = [-2 ± sqrt(2^2 - 4(1)(6))] / 2(1
x = [-2 ± sqrt(4 - 24)] /
x = [-1 ± sqrt(-20)] /
x = (-1 ± √20i) / 2
Therefore, the solutions for x are:
x = (-1 + √20i) /
x = (-1 - √20i) / 2
So, the solutions for x are complex numbers.
