Weekly Math Problem #60

Logarithmic Equation. Honestly, I don't want to lose momentum this week. I want to say more but...I...am...tired! πŸ˜©πŸ˜©

To solve this week's problem in completion, you need to recall the following math skills:

        ✔️     Properties of Logarithms
        ✔️     Methods to solve a quadratic equation

     

WMP! #60 want us to...


Happy solving!

Check back on Saturday, October 23rd for the solution, which will be posted below ⬇️.

If you've solved the problem above, then you would've seen that, indeed, solving a quadratic equation was required. There are options to solving a quadratic equation. How many options you have available to you depends on the type of quadratic equation you have. Below, you will see that I chose to use the completing the square method to solve the resulting quadratic equation. 






Did you forget that I like visuals? (I don't blame you if you did. πŸ˜…) The graph below shows the intersection where the LHS of the equation meets the RHS of the equation. As you can see, the intersection occurs when x=2...our solution! πŸ‘πŸΏ
