SOLUTION: find x: logbase3 (2x+1)=logbase3(x-2)-logbase3(3)

Question 1099872: find x:
logbase3 (2x+1)=logbase3(x-2)-logbase3(3)

The bases are the same for every term in the equation, so using rules of logarithms we can see

Algebraically, the only possible solution is x = -1; however, that makes the original equation

and that equation is invalid because log(-3) is undefined.

So there is no value of x that makes the equation true.
