The first step is to solve the equation by using the base property.
Given
Equation; log2x + log2(x – 6) = 4
The logarithmic function is an inverse function to exponentiation.
The equation is solved in the following steps given below.
[tex]\rm log_2x+log_2(x- 6) = 4 \\\\log_2(x \times (x-6)=4\\\\x\times (x-6)=2^4\\\\x^2-6x=16\\\\x^2-6x-16=0\\\\[/tex]
Hence, the first step is to solve the equation by using the base property.
