Full solution

Q. 2828. log(x+1)=logx+1 \log (x+1)=\log x+1
  1. Understand Domain: We need to solve the equation log(x+1)=logx+1\log(x+1) = \log x + 1. First, let's understand that the logarithm function is only defined for positive arguments. Therefore, both x+1x+1 and xx must be greater than 00. x+1>0x+1 > 0 implies x>1x > -1 and x>0x > 0 implies x>0x > 0. So, the domain for xx is x>0x > 0.
  2. Set Logarithms Equal: Now, let's use the property of logarithms that states if log(a)=log(b)\log(a) = \log(b), then a=ba = b. So, we can set the arguments of the logarithms equal to each other: x+1=x+1x+1 = x + 1.
  3. Simplify Equation: This equation simplifies to x+1=x+1x + 1 = x + 1. Subtract xx from both sides to isolate the constant terms: 1=11 = 1.
  4. Check Identity: We see that 1=11 = 1 is a true statement, which means that the original equation is an identity for all xx in the domain (x>0)(x > 0). Therefore, there is no unique solution for xx; any positive xx satisfies the equation.
