\"log+%286%2C+%28w%2B3%29%29+%2B+log+%286%2C+%28w-2%29%29+=+2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"log+%286%2C+%28w%2B3%29%28w-2%29%29+=+2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28w%2B3%29%28w-2%29+=36\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"w%5E2%2Bw-6=36\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"w%5E2%2Bw-42=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28w-6%29%28w%2B7%29=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "Two solutions:
\n" ); document.write( "\"w-6=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"w=6\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"w%2B7=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"w=-7\"
\n" ); document.write( "However since this leads to negative arguments for the log functions, this is not a valid solution.
