Friends!!!!!
Help me with this log-
sove for x :
Ix-10I log(base2) x-3 = 2(x-10)

your questions i must say at one sight can give a person heart attackkkkkk wait i am solving
OpenStudy (anonymous):
are the two answers 7 and 13/4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
13/4 and 10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Have you got 2 cases for solving mod??

yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
7 is not satisfying the equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
see i solve the question you tell me where i am wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
case 1:
when x>10,mod(x-10)=x-10

so x-10 cancels on both sides
we get,,,,
log(base 2)(x-3)=2
x-3=4
x=7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but x > 10
therefore, it is discarded.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ya i forgot
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in second case,
when x<10,
we have mod(x-10)=-(x-10)
-(x-10)log(base 2)(x-3)=2(x-10)
-log(base 2)(x-3)=2
log(base 2)1-log(base 2)(x-3)=2
log(base 2)(1/x-3)=2
1/x-3=4
x-3=1/4
x=13/4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
log(base 2)1-log(base 2)(x-3)=2
how???

ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i understod
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because log(base 2)1=0
as log 1=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i am not able to find the error so that x=10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
second case is fine right?
