You can put this solution on YOUR website!
ln (xsquared + 3x + 4) = ln 2
\n" ); document.write( "Take the anti-log of both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+3x+4 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+3x+2=0
\n" ); document.write( "(x+2)(x+1)=0
\n" ); document.write( "x=-2 or x=-1
\n" ); document.write( "Checking in the original problem:
\n" ); document.write( "If x=-2: ln(4-6+4)=ln2
\n" ); document.write( "If x=-1: ln(1-3+4)=ln2
\n" ); document.write( "Both answers are good.
