Solution for logx+log(x-2)=log(8) equation:


Simplifying
logx + log(x + -2) = log(8)

Reorder the terms:
glox + glo(-2 + x) = log(8)
glox + (-2 * glo + x * glo) = log(8)
glox + (-2glo + glox) = log(8)

Reorder the terms:
-2glo + glox + glox = log(8)

Combine like terms: glox + glox = 2glox
-2glo + 2glox = log(8)

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
-2glo + 2glox = 8glo

Solving
-2glo + 2glox = 8glo

Solving for variable 'g'.

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

Add '-8glo' to each side of the equation.
-2glo + -8glo + 2glox = 8glo + -8glo

Combine like terms: -2glo + -8glo = -10glo
-10glo + 2glox = 8glo + -8glo

Combine like terms: 8glo + -8glo = 0
-10glo + 2glox = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2glo'.
2glo(-5 + x) = 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 '(-5 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -5 + x = 0 Solving -5 + x = 0 Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '5' to each side of the equation. -5 + 5 + x = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0 0 + x = 0 + 5 x = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5 x = 5 Add '-1x' to each side of the equation. x + -1x = 5 + -1x Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0 0 = 5 + -1x Simplifying 0 = 5 + -1x 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.
