You can put this solution on YOUR website!
what are the restrictions of x if log base 2^(x-1) - log base 2^(x+1) > 9?
--------
Rule to follows:
To find log(x), x must be greater than zero.
---------
Your Problem:
For log(base 2) (x-1), x-1 >=0 ; x must be >=1
For log(base 2) (x+1), x+1 >=0 ; x must be >=-1
--------
Both of these conditions can be met as long as x>=1
