If log 2, log (2x -1) and log (2x + 3) are in A.P., then x is equal to

5/2
log25
log32
3/2
1/2

Solve log(2x+3)- log(2x-1)=log(2x-1)-log2


(2x+3)/(2x-1)= (2x-1)/2

Get x=5/2

Well,I dont know in detail but this problem only uses basic log properties.
The questions that require changing of log bases,advanced log properties don't appear on the GMAT.
I guess just knowing basic log properties like addition,subtraction is enough.

Anyways,even if you forget the properties,it can be derived using "e".
I guess everyone knows the properties of the exponents and the log properties can be derived from there.

Ex:-Let log a = x
log b = y

Then,a = e^x
b= e^y

Now,a*b = (e^x)(e^y) = e^(x+y) [Using the properties of exponents]
Hence,log (ab) = x + y = log a + log b

Like this you can also prove the similar properties. :)
It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button :)



Just because something is hard doesn't mean you shouldn't try,it means you should just try harder.
