We'll impose the constraints of existence of
logarithms.
The base has to be positive and it is different
from
1.
x+1>0
x>-1
x
different from 0.
Now, the arguments have to be
positive:
x^2-3x+2>0
The
expression is positive if x is in the ranges
(-inf.,1)U(2,+inf.)
x^2-2x>0
The
expression is positive if x is in the ranges
(-inf.,0)U(2,+inf.)
The common intervals of admissible
values for x are:
(-1 ; 0)U(2 ;
+infinite)
Now, we'll solve the
equation.
Since the logarithms have matching bases, we'll
apply one to one property:
x^2-3x+2 =
x^2-2x
We'll eliminate x^2 both
sides:
-3x + 2 + 2x = 0
-x + 2
= 0
-x = -2
x =
2
Since 2 doesn't belong to the intervals of admissible
values, we'll reject it.
The equation has no
solutions.
