#36. log5(8-3x)=3
8-3x = 5^3
3x = 8-125
x = -117/3
---------------------------------------
#48. log2(2x)+log2(x+2)=log2 16
log2[2x(x+2)] = log2 16
4x^2+4x = 16
x^2+x-4=0
x = [-1 +- sqrt(1-4*-4)]/2
x = [-1 +-sqrt(17)]/2
x = [-1+sqrt(17)]/2 or x = [-1-sqrt(17)]/2
---------------------------------------
#49. ln e^x - 2ln e = ln e^4
x-2 = 4
x = 6
---------------------------------------
