Solve the exponential equation. Express the solution set in terms of natural logarithms. 83x = 2.2
FKKJWKEJI44 Please use proper notation it only takes a second and makes it easier for everyone trying to help you it is common curtesy
*courtesy
I will help you if you type it out using proper notation
Solve the exponential equation. Express the solution set in terms of natural logarithms. 8^3x = 2.2
thanks :)
welcome :)
take the log of both sides of the equation remember log_u(x) = u^(y) is the same as u^(y) = x thus if log_8(8) = 8^(y) so 8^(1) = 8 thus log_8(8) = 1 so take log_(8) on both sides of the equation log_8(8^(3x)) = log_8(2.2) 3xlog_8(8) = log_8(2.2) = 3x(1) = log_8(2.2) x = log_8(2.2)/3
if you have any questions ask
Remember that I simply used the rule log(x^(y)) = ylog(x)
to bring down the exponent
okay thanks
if you dont care for an explanation you can use https://www.wolframalpha.com to find the answer
