For starting, we'll have to impose constraints of
existance of logarithm
function.
5x+25>0
We'll
add -25 both
sides:
5x>-25
We'll
divide by
5:
x>-5
So, for the
logarithms to exist, the values of x have to be in the interval (-5,
+inf.)
We'll shift the free term to the right
side:
log 5 (5x+25) = 2
We'll
create matching bases to the right side.
log 5 (5x+25) =
log 5 (5^2)
Now, we'll use the one to one
property:
5x+25 = 25
We'll
eliminate like terms:
5x =
25-25
5x = 0
We'll divide by
5:
x = 0 >
-5
The solution is admissible because the
value belongs to the interval (-5,+inf.)
