OpenStudy (lalaly):

\[\log_{3} 7 = x+1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subtract the 1?

OpenStudy (lalaly):

exactly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use the Change of Base formula on the left side and subtract the 1 from both sides if you need a decimal answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_{3}{7} -1 = x\] ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

OpenStudy (lalaly):
