5^(2x+1)÷25=125
multiply both sides times 25
5^(2x+1) = 3125
log(5^(2x+1)) = log(3125)
Remember the rules of logs? The log of a number raised to a power is the power times the log of the number, like this:
(2x+1)log(5) = log(3125)
2x+1 = (log(3125))/log(5)
2x+1 = log_5(3125)
2x = (log_5(3125))-1
2x = 5-1
2x = 4
x = 2
