Question

Solve:
log(6) (x^2-5x) = 1

Answer 1

that's log base 6 just to clarify

Answer 2

\[\log_b(\xi)=1\iff \xi =b\]

Answer 3

so
\[\log_6(\xi)=1\iff \xi =6\]

Answer 4

ooohhhh I know what your saayin now

Answer 5

ok and then what after that

Answer 6

right
you only job is to solve
\[x^2-5x=6\]

Answer 7

wait now that doesn't make sense

Answer 8

I thought they have to be same base?

Answer 9

all I did was switch those and then I could just dropo the log?

Answer 10

i will let you figure out why if
\[\log_6(x^2-5x)=1\] then
\[x^2-5x=6^1\]

Answer 11

heres what ihave after I switched them
