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


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

Multiply glo * x
glox + log(x + -2) = log(8x)

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

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

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

Remove parenthesis around (8x)
-2glo + 2glox = glo * 8x

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

Multiply glo * x
-2glo + 2glox = 8glox

Solving
-2glo + 2glox = 8glox

Solving for variable 'g'.

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

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

Combine like terms: 2glox + -8glox = -6glox
-2glo + -6glox = 8glox + -8glox

Combine like terms: 8glox + -8glox = 0
-2glo + -6glox = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '-2glo'.
-2glo(1 + 3x) = 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 '(1 + 3x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + 3x = 0 Solving 1 + 3x = 0 Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + 3x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + 3x = 0 + -1 3x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 3x = -1 Add '-3x' to each side of the equation. 3x + -3x = -1 + -3x Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0 0 = -1 + -3x Simplifying 0 = -1 + -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.
