Question 550794: Can you pls. help me solve this log prob. (Have a few others: would be happy to donate if this is the kind of problem you can solve.) When I convert logs to exponents, I have perfect squares, some things cancel, and--of course--I have reciprocals, so some things become -1. However, I'm still not getting the "clean" answer I expect.
Solve for X:
2 log bx = 2 log b(1-a) + 2 log b(1 + a) - log b (1/a - a)^2
Thanks very much,
