Solve this logarithmic equation

log (x^2 - 2x + 3) = 3

I need to solve for x and don't even know how to begin to do so. First correct answer with work gets best answer right away!

First apply the definition of log: logB(A)= C -> B^C= A

log (x^2 - 2x + 3) = 3... This is base 10

10^3= x^2-2x+3

0= x^2 -2x -997

Since it does not factor, use quadratic formula:

X= 32.6 or -30.6

Be sure to check with logs.

Hoping this helps!
