Solution for logx+log(x-15)=log(12x) equation:


Simplifying
logx + log(x + -15) = log(12x)

Reorder the terms:
glox + glo(-15 + x) = log(12x)
glox + (-15 * glo + x * glo) = log(12x)
glox + (-15glo + glox) = log(12x)

Reorder the terms:
-15glo + glox + glox = log(12x)

Combine like terms: glox + glox = 2glox
-15glo + 2glox = log(12x)

Remove parenthesis around (12x)
-15glo + 2glox = glo * 12x

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
-15glo + 2glox = 12glo * x

Multiply glo * x
-15glo + 2glox = 12glox

Solving
-15glo + 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.
-15glo + 2glox + -12glox = 12glox + -12glox

Combine like terms: 2glox + -12glox = -10glox
-15glo + -10glox = 12glox + -12glox

Combine like terms: 12glox + -12glox = 0
-15glo + -10glox = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '-5glo'.
-5glo(3 + 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 '(3 + 2x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 3 + 2x = 0 Solving 3 + 2x = 0 Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + 2x = 0 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + 2x = 0 + -3 2x = 0 + -3 Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3 2x = -3 Add '-2x' to each side of the equation. 2x + -2x = -3 + -2x Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0 0 = -3 + -2x Simplifying 0 = -3 + -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.
