Solve the logarithmic equation. Be sure to reject any value that is not in the domain of the original logarithmic expressions. Give the exact answer.
log7 x + log7 (x - 48) = 2

I'm not really sure how to go about this..











(x - 49)(x + 1) = 0

x - 49 = 0_________OR________x + 1 = 0



OR

x = - 1 (ignore as this value will lead to a negative log value)

You can do the check!!
