With the log laws, we can write the left-hand side as one logarithmic expression,

lnx+ln(x+4)=ln(x(x+4))

but this rewriting presupposes that the expressions lnx and ln(x+4) are defined, i.e. x0 and x+40. Therefore, if we choose to continue with the equation

ln(x(x+4))=ln(2x+3)

we must remember to permit only solutions that satisfy x0 (the condition x+40 is then automatically satisfied).

The equation rewritten in this way is, in turn, only satisfied if the arguments x(x+4) and 2x+3 are equal to each other and positive, i.e.

x(x+4)=2x+3.

We rewrite this equation as x2+2x3=0 and completing the square gives

(x+1)2123(x+1)2=4=0

which means that x=12, i.e. x=3 and x=1.

Because x=3 is negative, we neglect it, whilst for x=1 we have both that x0 and x(x+4)=2x+30. Therefore, the answer is x=1.
