log((5+x)/(x-3)) = log 5,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%285%2Bx%29%2F%28x-3%29+=+5\"$ ,
\n" ); document.write( "5+x = 5(x-3),
\n" ); document.write( "5+x = 5x - 15,
\n" ); document.write( "20 = 4x,
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5. This value satisfies the original equation, and so is the final answer. \n" ); document.write( "
