Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Logarithms</u>
Some properties of logarithms will be useful to solve this problem:
1. 
2. 
3. 
We are given the equation:

Applying the second property:

Substituting:

Applying the first property:

Operating:

Rearranging:

Simplifying:

Dividing by 3:

Applying the third property:

Applying inverse logs:

B is the answer there is a common denominator y’a welcome
Any number inside the modulus sign becomes positive. This means
and so we have,

Solving these gives us


However if we check the second solution in the original equation we obtain
. This is false and so
can't be a solution.
Therefore the only solution is
.
(Note: I'm not sure why the second solution didn't work but when there's a modulus sign involved it always pays to check your final answers to be sure. I'll have a think about it but in case you find out before I do, I'd be interested to know in the comments.)
