Solve the equation in each of the following.
log105 + log10(5x + 1) = log10(x + 5) + 1
log105 + log10(5x + 1) = log10(x + 5) + 1
⇒ log10(5(5x + 1)) - log10(x + 5) = 1
⇒ ![]()
(∵ loga(M ÷ N) = (logaM) - (logaN))
⇒ ![]()
⇒ 25x + 5 = 10(x + 5)
⇒ 25x + 5 = 10x + 50
⇒ 25x - 10x = 50 - 5 = 45
⇒ 15x = 45
⇒ x = 3
