How do you solve #log(x+10)-log(x+4)=logx#? Precalculus Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations Logarithmic Models 1 Answer Konstantinos Michailidis Feb 25, 2016 It is #x=2# Explanation: It is #log(x+10)-log(x+4)=logx=>log[(x+10)/(x+4)]=logx=> (x+10)/(x+4)=x=>x+10=x*(x+4)=> x^2+4x-x-10=0=> x^2+3x-10=0=> x_1=2 or x_2=-5# But hence #x>0# the only acceptable solution is #x=2# Answer link Related questions What is a logarithmic model?
