sum of logs is log of product
log3 (4 x^2 + 7 x -2) = 5
base ^logbase(z) = z
so
3^[log3 (4 x^2 + 7 x -2)] = 3^5
or
(4 x^2 + 7 x -2) = 243
4 x^2 + 7 x - 245 = 0
(x-7)( 4x+35) = 0
x = 7 or x = -35/4
log3 (4 x^2 + 7 x -2) = 5
base ^logbase(z) = z
so
3^[log3 (4 x^2 + 7 x -2)] = 3^5
or
(4 x^2 + 7 x -2) = 243
4 x^2 + 7 x - 245 = 0
(x-7)( 4x+35) = 0
x = 7 or x = -35/4
