Step 1.2.1

Reorder $\log (x)$ and $6$ .

$\log (x) x + 6 \cdot \log (x) = 2$

Step 1.2.2

Simplify $6 \cdot \log (x)$ by moving $6$ inside the logarithm.

$\log (x) x + \log (x^{6}) = 2$

Step 1.3

Reorder factors in $\log (x) x + \log (x^{6})$ .

$x \log (x) + \log (x^{6}) = 2$

Step 2

Graph each side of the equation. The solution is the x-value of the point of intersection.

$x \approx 1.80415461$
