Solve each logarithmic equation. Be sure to reject any value of $x$ that is not in the domain of the original logarithmic expressions. Give the exact answer. Then, where necessary, use a calculator to obtain a decimal approximation, correct to two decimal places, for the solution. $$\log _{2}(4 x+1)=5$$
