log 2 (x^2 -x -52) = 2
2 ^ log 2 (x^2 -x -52) = 2^2
(x^2 -x -52) = 4
x^2 -x -52 =4
x^2 -x - 56 = 0
(x - 8)(x + 7) = 0
x = 8 , x = -7
log 2 ((8)^2 - (8) -52) = 2
log 2 (64 -8 -52)
log 2 (4) = 2
2 =2 check
log 2 ((7)^2 - (7) -52) = 2
log 2 (49 - (-7) -52) =2
log 2 (49 + 7 -52) = 2
log 2 (56 - 52) = 2
log 2 (4) = 2
2 = 2 check
x = -7, 8

log₂(x² - x - 52) = 2

Same start as the last time you asked this when I thought the base was 10. Instead of a base of 10, it's a base of 2.

x² - x - 52 = 2²
x² - x - 52 = 4
x² - x - 56 = 0
(x - 8)(x + 7) = 0
x = -7 and 8

Testing both to make sure that x² - x - 52 results in a positive number:

x² - x - 52
(-7)² - (-7) - 52 and 8² - 8 - 52
49 + 7 - 52 and 64 - 60
4 and 4

Both are positive, so both values of x are solutions:

x = -7 and 8
