The correct answer would be: C. 44
Explanation: If you're trying to find out x's value, you have to do the inverse operation which means if it's subtraction, you add. So to find x's value, you'd add 36 + 8 = x. And 36 + 8 = 44. So therefore, x = 44. That means the answer is C.
The possible solution to the equation given is 3 and -1/3
<h3>Laws of logarithm</h3>
Given the logarithmic expression given as:
log,(8x) – log,(x^2 - 1) = log, 3
Applying the product and quotient rule will give:
log(8x/x^2-1) = log3
8x/x^2-1 = 3
Cross multiply
8x = 3x^2 - 3
3x^2 - 8x - 3 = 0
3x^2 -9x + x - 3 = 0
3x(x-3)+1(x-3)
x - 3 = 0 and 3x = -1
x = 3 and -1/3
Hence the possible solution to the equation given is 3 and -1/3

Like fractions are fractions that show different numbers but have the same value. eg.1/2, 3/6, 10/20, 32/64 all have the same value, half.
