Use the fact that:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"Log%5Bb%5D%28x%29+=+y\"$ means $\"x+=+b%5Ey\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"Log%5B6%5D%284x%2B1%29+=+2\"$ means $\"%284x%2B1%29+=+6%5E2\"$ so...
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x%2B1+=+36\"$ Subtract 1 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x+=+35\"$ Divide both sides by 4.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+8.75\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
