Fill in the Blank

A technical analyst is reviewing a mathematical model for a logistics system based on the equation log(x+2)log(4x+3)=logx\log(x+2) - \log(4x+3) = -\log x. During the calculation, the analyst finds potential values for xx of 3 and -1. Since the value -1 results in an undefined logarithm when substituted back into the original equation, it must be rejected. This type of invalid solution is formally known as an ____ solution.
