Question #7cc9a Precalculus Properties of Logarithmic Functions Natural Logs 1 Answer sente Feb 7, 2017 #x=3# Explanation: #2ln(x-2) - ln(2x-5) = 0# #=> ln((x-2)^2) - ln(2x-5) = 0# #=> ln((x-2)^2) = ln(2x-5)# #=> e^ln((x-2)^2) = e^ln(2x-5)# #=> (x-2)^2 = 2x-5# #=> x^2-4x+4 = 2x-5# #=> x^2 - 6x + 9 = 0# #=> (x-3)^2 = 0# #:.x=3# Answer link Related questions What is the natural log of e?
