Identifying an Error
Identify the error in the student solution shown
below. Find the correct answer.
2ln(x)= In(3x) - [In(9) - 2ln(3)]
In(x²) In(3x)-[In(9) - In(9)]
In(~2) 1/25)

Sagot :

The incorrect step is ln(x²) = ln(3x/0) because ln(x/y) = lnx - lny and the solutions are x = 0, 3

What is a logarithm?

It is another way to represent the power of numbers, and we say that 'b' is the logarithm of 'c' with base 'a' if and only if 'a' to the power 'b' equals 'c'.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

We have:

2ln(x) = In(3x) - [In(9) - 2ln(3)]

In(x²) = In(3x) - [In(9) - In(9)]

ln(x²) = ln(3x) - 0

ln(x²) = ln(3x/0)   (incorrect step)

ln(x²) = ln(3x)

x² = 3x  (correct step)

x² - 3x =0

x(x - 3) = 0

x = 0, 3

Thus, the incorrect step is ln(x²) = ln(3x/0) because ln(x/y) = lnx - lny and the solutions are x = 0, 3
