Hello!
log₃(x) + log₃(x - 6) = log₃(7) <=>
<=> log₃(x * (x - 6)) = log₃(7) <=>
<=> log₃(x² - 6x) = log₃(7) <=>
<=> x² - 6x = 7 <=>
<=> x² - 6x - 7 = 0 <=>
<=> x² + x - 7x - 7 = 0 <=>
<=> x * (x + 1) - 7 * (x + 1) = 0 <=>
<=> (x + 1) * (x - 7) = 0 <=>
<=> x + 1 = 0 and x - 7 = 0 <=>
<=> x = -1 and x = 7, x ∈ { 6; +∞ } <=>
<=> x = 7
Good luck! :)
Statues+72=240
minus 72 both sides
statues=168
168=8statutes
assuming they cost the same
divide both sides by 8
21=1statue
each costs $21
