$\"+4%5E%283x%2B2%29=7%5E%28x-3%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%283x%2B2%29%2Aln4+=+%28x-3%29%2Aln7\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%283x%2B2%29%2A1.3863+=+%28x-3%29%2A1.9459\"$
\n" ); document.write( "expand both sides
\n" ); document.write( "collect like terms
\n" ); document.write( "then solve for x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let me know if you can't get it \n" ); document.write( "
