Where is n in the question?
OpenStudy (uri):
^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its 3^n

Sorry, right, here goes
OpenStudy (lncognlto):
3^7290 = 9^2*3^n
7290 log 3 = 2*3^n (log 9) (all base 10)
3645 log 3 = 3^n log 9
3^n = (3645 log 3/log 9)
n log 3 = log (3645 log 3/log 9)
n = (log (3645 log 3/log 9))/log 3
There we go, that should do it. Now we evaluate with a calculator. The principle I am using is that x^n = n log x.

Is that the correct method for solving these kinda questions?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its werid......Easy way is to make the powers on both side same and then equate powers
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can you solve? this question..Then I would understand how to solve these questions!!

Yeah, was just coming to post what @Yahoo! did. It's easier than you think, just convert all to base 3 and combine and you end up with something of the form\[\Large 3^a=3^b\]
Hence, a=b and it's an easy-peasy linear equation. :)
