(C) Given that $\log _{5} 2, \log _{5}(2^{x}-3)$,and $\log _{5}(\frac{17}{2}+2^{x-1})$ are in $A.P.$For three terms $a, b, c$ to be in $A.P.$,the condition is $2b = a + c$.Applying this condition: $2 \log _{5}(2^{x}-3) = \log _{5} 2 + \log _{5}(\frac{17}{2}+2^{x-1})$.Using the property $\log m + \log n = \log(mn)$,we get: $\log _{5}(2^{x}-3)^{2} = \log _{5}(2 	imes (\frac{17}{2}+2^{x-1}))$.$(2^{x}-3)^{2} = 17 + 2 	imes 2^{x-1} = 17 + 2^{x}$.Let $2^{x} = y$. Then $(y-3)^{2} = 17 + y$.$y^{2} - 6y + 9 = 17 + y \Rightarrow y^{2} - 7y - 8 = 0$.$(y-8)(y+1) = 0$. Since $y = 2^{x} > 0$,we have $y = 8$.$2^{x} = 8 = 2^{3} \Rightarrow x = 3$.

If $\log _{5} 2, \log _{5}(2^{x}-3)$ and $\log _{5}(\frac{17}{2}+2^{x-1})$ are in $A.P.$,then the value of $x$ is:
