From what I can re-call...


log 3^x - log3(x+3) = 4

log 3 ^ x(x+3) =4

x(x+3) = 3 ^ 4

x^2 + 3x = 81

x^2 + 3x -81 = 0

Do the quadratic formula from there and the positive solution is your answer..I think.

-3 +- the square root of [9 -4(1)(-81)]

But if you do that, you get a negative, meaning the answer is imaginary... so either an answer with i or no solution.. Haven't done these in ages.

Might be. I just searched that shit into google. I haven't taken a math class in years.
