Answer:x=2.114

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]10^{x+1}-10^{x-1}=1287[/tex]

[tex]10\times 10^x-\frac{10^x}{10}=1287[/tex]

Let [tex]10^x=y[/tex]

[tex]10y-\frac{y}{10}=1287[/tex]

[tex]\frac{100y-y}{10}=1287[/tex]

[tex]99y=1287\times 10[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{12870}{99}=130[/tex]

[tex]10^x=130[/tex]

Taking [tex]\log [/tex]both sides

[tex]x\log (10)=\log (130)[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{\log (130)}{1}[/tex]

[tex]x=2.114[/tex]
