Solution for log(x)+log(x-5)=log(12x) equation:


Simplifying
log(x) + log(x + -5) = log(12x)

Multiply glo * x
glox + log(x + -5) = log(12x)

Reorder the terms:
glox + glo(-5 + x) = log(12x)
glox + (-5 * glo + x * glo) = log(12x)
glox + (-5glo + glox) = log(12x)

Reorder the terms:
-5glo + glox + glox = log(12x)

Combine like terms: glox + glox = 2glox
-5glo + 2glox = log(12x)

Remove parenthesis around (12x)
-5glo + 2glox = glo * 12x

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
-5glo + 2glox = 12glo * x

Multiply glo * x
-5glo + 2glox = 12glox

Solving
-5glo + 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.
-5glo + 2glox + -12glox = 12glox + -12glox

Combine like terms: 2glox + -12glox = -10glox
-5glo + -10glox = 12glox + -12glox

Combine like terms: 12glox + -12glox = 0
-5glo + -10glox = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '-5glo'.
-5glo(1 + 2x) = 0

Ignore the factor -5.

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 + 2x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + 2x = 0 Solving 1 + 2x = 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 + 2x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + 2x = 0 + -1 2x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 2x = -1 Add '-2x' to each side of the equation. 2x + -2x = -1 + -2x Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0 0 = -1 + -2x Simplifying 0 = -1 + -2x 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.
