Solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( "log base 6 of (3x+14) - log base 6 of 5 = log base 6 of (2x)
\n" ); document.write( "log6(3x+14)-log6(5)=log6(2x)
\n" ); document.write( "log6(3x+14)-log6(5)-log6(2x)=0
\n" ); document.write( "log6(3x+14)-(log6(5)+log6(2x))=0
\n" ); document.write( "place under single log
\n" ); document.write( "log6[(3x+14)/(5*2x)]=0
\n" ); document.write( "log6[(3x+14)/(10x)]=0
\n" ); document.write( "convert to exponential form: base(6) raised to log of number(0)=number(3x+14)/(10x)
\n" ); document.write( "6^0=(3x+14)/(10x)=1
\n" ); document.write( "10x=3x+14
\n" ); document.write( "7x=14
\n" ); document.write( "x=2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
