Question 85740: Please help! I am getting several different solutions. I am lost.
Use the properties of logarithms to condense the logarithmic expression. Write the expression as a single logarithm whose coefficient is 1. Evaluate.
log5 (x + 4) - log5 (x + 1)

Apply the second law of logarithms:
log5(x + 4) - log5(x + 1) = log5%28x+%2B+4%29%2F%28x+%2B+1%29
