It is correct but you need to take into consideration that all inputs of logarithmic functions must be positive. Hence, n=5 is not allowed because -45+25<0 and so the only solution is n=9.

asked 10/26/20Use the one-to-one property of logarithms to solve
Question. . log9 (2n2 − 14n)= log9 (−45 + n2 )
=2n2-14n = -45 + n2
=2n2-n2-14n+45=0
=n2-14n+45=0
=(n-5)(n-9) = 0
=n-5=0 or n-9=0
=n-5=0 or n-9=0
=n = 5 or n= 9
Is this correct up to here?
and then, what is the final answer and how to solve this question?
I don't know the next step.
