To solve this equation, we will first use the property of logarithms that states lg(a) - lg(b) = lg(a/b).
So, the equation becomes:
lg(25) - lg(2x + 3) = lg(3) - lg(x - 9)
Now, we can combine the logs using the property mentioned above:
lg(25/(2x + 3)) = lg(3/(x - 9))
Now, we can remove the logarithms by setting the expressions inside the logarithms equal to each other:
25/(2x + 3) = 3/(x - 9)
Now, we can solve for x:
25(x - 9) = 3(2x + 3)25x - 225 = 6x + 919x = 234x = 12.3158
Therefore, the solution to the equation lg(25) - lg(2x + 3) = lg(3) - lg(x - 9) is x = 12.3158.
