Solution for log(-x-2)=log(3x)-log(x) equation:


Simplifying
log(-1x + -2) = log(3x) + -1log(x)

Reorder the terms:
glo(-2 + -1x) = log(3x) + -1log(x)
(-2 * glo + -1x * glo) = log(3x) + -1log(x)
(-2glo + -1glox) = log(3x) + -1log(x)

Remove parenthesis around (3x)
-2glo + -1glox = glo * 3x + -1log(x)

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
-2glo + -1glox = 3glo * x + -1log(x)

Multiply glo * x
-2glo + -1glox = 3glox + -1log(x)

Multiply glo * x
-2glo + -1glox = 3glox + -1glox

Combine like terms: 3glox + -1glox = 2glox
-2glo + -1glox = 2glox

Solving
-2glo + -1glox = 2glox

Solving for variable 'g'.

Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2glox' to each side of the equation.
-2glo + -1glox + -2glox = 2glox + -2glox

Combine like terms: -1glox + -2glox = -3glox
-2glo + -3glox = 2glox + -2glox

Combine like terms: 2glox + -2glox = 0
-2glo + -3glox = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '-1glo'.
-1glo(2 + 3x) = 0

Ignore the factor -1.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'glo' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying glo = 0 Solving glo = 0 Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying glo = 0 The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(2 + 3x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + 3x = 0 Solving 2 + 3x = 0 Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + 3x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + 3x = 0 + -2 3x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 3x = -2 Add '-3x' to each side of the equation. 3x + -3x = -2 + -3x Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0 0 = -2 + -3x Simplifying 0 = -2 + -3x The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined. The solution to this equation could not be determined.
