Question 547311: What is the value of x? I am stumped.
log(x+3)+log(2)=1.1

Answer by mathie123(224)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

We need to first put this together as one log function. Using the rule that says log(a)+log(b)=log(ab) we get

Now to get rid of the log, we must do the opposite function which is to put base 10 to the whole thing as so:


Now we need to isolate x, to do this we must divide both sides by 2

And now we must subtract out the 3

(This number can be done on your calculator and simplified... I will let you do the rest).
Hopefully this helps, let me know if you are still unsure:)
