Question 307756
{{{log(10,5-2x)=0}}}  which means that {{{10^0=5-2x}}}
{{{1=5-2x}}}
{{{-4=-2x}}}
{{{x=2}}}


I have additional explanation in both written and video format with examples solved in LIVING COLOR on my own website.  Please go to "www2.seminolestate.edu/rrapalje".  Look for the links on my Homepage "Basic, Intermediate, and College Algebra: One Step at a Time" and also "MATH IN LIVING COLOR", and look under "College Algebra" (Chapter 4).  


I also have a complete video from my own teaching in class before I retired a few years ago on Logarithms.  To see the video, look for "Rapalje Videos in Living Color", and see College Algebra for the topic of Logarithms.  


I think you will find the explanations, both written and video, much easier to understand than traditional textbooks.  Best of all, it's all FREE--even the VIDEO!!
