$\"log3%281%2F9%29%5Ex=%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"xlog3%281%2F9%29=%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"xlog3%281%2F%283%5E2%29%29=%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"xlog3%283%5E%28-2%29%29=%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%28-2log3%283%29%29=%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "since log3(3) = 1
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%28-2%281%29%29=%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x=x%2B2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "add -x to each side
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-3x=2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "divide each side by -3
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+-2%2F3\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
