4^ 3x=6000 Helper gets a medal :) !

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Is that \[4^{3x} =6000\] or \[4^3x=6000\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

log4^3x=log6000 3xlog4=log6000 3x=log6000/log4 3x=6.275 x=2.092 approximately

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

That's one of three solutions...can you find the other two? :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i may be wrong but im pretty sure theres only 1 solution

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Yes, you're wrong. There are 3 solutions. Two of them are complex numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

.........in algebra 2 they usually only ask for the real number

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Just because they aren't asking for them doesn't mean they don't exist, you know :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in the scope of algebra 2 you don't need to find them

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Don't make the mistake of assuming your algebra 2 curriculum is the same as everyone else's! It ain't necessarily so...
