Ln a+3 + ln a-3 = ln 16

Lilit [14]

$\bf log_{{ a}}(xy)\implies log_{{ a}}(x)+log_{{ a}}(y)\\\\
and\qquad \textit{difference of squares}
\\ \quad \\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
ln(a+3)+ln(a-3)=ln(16)\implies ln[(a+3)(a-3)]=ln(16)
\\\\\\
ln[a^2-3^2]=ln(16)\impliedby \textit{removing ln() from both sides}
\\\\\\
a^2-9=16\implies a^2=16+9\implies a^2=25
\\\\\\
a=\pm\sqrt{25}\implies a=\pm 5$

We have the supplementary angles.

The sum of the measures of the two Supplementary Angles is 180°.

Therefore we have the equation:

13x - 2 + 39 = 180

13x + 37 = 180 <em>subtract 37 from both sides</em>

13x = 143 <em>divide both sides by 13</em>

<em>x = 11</em>
