Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
some rules of logarithmic function
vice-versa
If ㏑(a) = ㏑(b), then a = b
∴
Use the 2nd rule to simplify it
2㏑(2x) - ㏑(10x) = ㏑(30)
Use the 3rd rule in the 1st term
∵ 2㏑(2x) = ㏑(2x)² = ㏑(4x²)
∴ ㏑(4x²) - ㏑(10x) = ㏑(30)
- Use the 1st rule with the left hand side
Use the 4th rule
Multiply both sides by 5
∴ 2 x = 150
- Divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 75
The value of x = 75
