Solve the equation LaTeX:  \displaystyle \log_{6}(x + 194)-\log_{6}(x + 14)=1 .

Using the quotient property of logarithms gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle \log_{6}\frac{x + 194}{x + 14} = 1 . Making both sides of the equation exponents on the base LaTeX:  \displaystyle 6 gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle \frac{x + 194}{x + 14}=6 . Clearing the fractions by multiplying by the LCD gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle x + 194=6 x + 84 . Isolating LaTeX:  \displaystyle x gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle x = 22 .
