First, use the properties of logarithms to simplify the equation:
Log2 (2x+1) = 2log2 3 - log2 (x-4)Log2 (2x+1) = log2 (3^2) - log2 (x-4)^1Log2 (2x+1) = log2 (9) - log2 (x-4)
Now, use the properties of logarithms to combine the logs on the right side:
Log2 (2x+1) = log2 (9/(x-4))
Since the bases of the logarithms are the same, we can set the arguments equal to each other:
2x + 1 = 9/(x-4)
Now, solve for x:
2x + 1 = 9/(x-4)2x(x-4) + (x-4) = 92x^2 - 8x + x - 4 = 92x^2 - 7x - 13 = 0
Now, you can use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
x = (7 ± sqrt(7^2 - 42(-13))) / (2*2)x = (7 ± sqrt(49 + 104)) / 4x = (7 ± sqrt(153)) / 4
So, the solutions for x are:
x = (7 + sqrt(153)) / 4x = (7 - sqrt(153)) / 4
First, use the properties of logarithms to simplify the equation:
Log2 (2x+1) = 2log2 3 - log2 (x-4)
Log2 (2x+1) = log2 (3^2) - log2 (x-4)^1
Log2 (2x+1) = log2 (9) - log2 (x-4)
Now, use the properties of logarithms to combine the logs on the right side:
Log2 (2x+1) = log2 (9/(x-4))
Since the bases of the logarithms are the same, we can set the arguments equal to each other:
2x + 1 = 9/(x-4)
Now, solve for x:
2x + 1 = 9/(x-4)
2x(x-4) + (x-4) = 9
2x^2 - 8x + x - 4 = 9
2x^2 - 7x - 13 = 0
Now, you can use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
x = (7 ± sqrt(7^2 - 42(-13))) / (2*2)
x = (7 ± sqrt(49 + 104)) / 4
x = (7 ± sqrt(153)) / 4
So, the solutions for x are:
x = (7 + sqrt(153)) / 4
x = (7 - sqrt(153)) / 4
