Explanation: To start this problem off, we first start off by applying to product property of logarithms to the first two logs on the left hand side of the equation. When we do, we get the following equation:

Once our equation reaches this step, we can find the value of x by noting that the logarithms on both sides have the same base. To solve the equation, we simply set the arguments within the logarithms equal to each other and solve for x. Thus, we get the following equation:

This equation that has been set up is all too easy to solve. By applying the quadratic formula, we get the following series of mathematical steps:
