Answer:
x = -5/4 if this is log base 19, or x = - 4.75 if these are common logs.
Step-by-step explanation:
log19–3x = log19(x + 5)
is the logarithm with base 19 ?
you could remove the log operation..
-3x = (x + 5)
if it was the case that the logarithm was of base 19.
then
solve for x:
-4x = 5
x = -5/4
or if it was the case that this is a Common Logarithm then:
log (19- 3x) = log (19*(x + 5) )
19 - 3x = 19*(x + 5)
19 -3x = 19x + 95
-76 = 16x
x = -4.75
