Step-by-step solution

Defined domain

x>0 x>0

x+1>0 x+1>0

x>1 x>-1

log7x+log(x+1)log7=log2xlogx \log7x+\log\left(x+1\right)-\log7=\log2x-\log x

log7x(x+1)7=log2xx \log\frac{7x\cdot\left(x+1\right)}{7}=\log\frac{2x}{x}

We reduce by: 7 7 and by X X

x(x+1)=2 x\left(x+1\right)=2

x2+x2=0 x^2+x-2=0

(x+2)(x1)=0 \left(x+2\right)\left(x-1\right)=0

x+2=0 x+2=0

x=2 x=-2

Undefined domain x>0 x>0

x1=0 x-1=0

x=1 x=1
