Solution for log(x)+log(x-4)=log(12x) equation:


Simplifying
log(x) + log(x + -4) = log(12x)

Multiply glo * x
glox + log(x + -4) = log(12x)

Reorder the terms:
glox + glo(-4 + x) = log(12x)
glox + (-4 * glo + x * glo) = log(12x)
glox + (-4glo + glox) = log(12x)

Reorder the terms:
-4glo + glox + glox = log(12x)

Combine like terms: glox + glox = 2glox
-4glo + 2glox = log(12x)

Remove parenthesis around (12x)
-4glo + 2glox = glo * 12x

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
-4glo + 2glox = 12glo * x

Multiply glo * x
-4glo + 2glox = 12glox

Solving
-4glo + 2glox = 12glox

Solving for variable 'g'.

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

Add '-12glox' to each side of the equation.
-4glo + 2glox + -12glox = 12glox + -12glox

Combine like terms: 2glox + -12glox = -10glox
-4glo + -10glox = 12glox + -12glox

Combine like terms: 12glox + -12glox = 0
-4glo + -10glox = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '-2glo'.
-2glo(2 + 5x) = 0

Ignore the factor -2.

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 + 5x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + 5x = 0 Solving 2 + 5x = 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 + 5x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + 5x = 0 + -2 5x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 5x = -2 Add '-5x' to each side of the equation. 5x + -5x = -2 + -5x Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0 0 = -2 + -5x Simplifying 0 = -2 + -5x 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.
