Great start! You've done all the hard work. The rest is just simplify:

... and solve:
Multiply both sides by x:

Divide both sides by 10000:

With logarithmic equations you should always check your answers. You must make sure that none of the logarithms end up with a zero or negative argument. A quick visual check of the original equation tells you that 1/10000 will not make the argument of either logarithm zero or negative. So this answer checks.
