hope you know log(a) b +log(a) c = log(a) b*c
like a first step hope this will help you
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
and for second term
3log(a) b = log(a) b^3
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
so and you can rewriting the 14 like log(3) 3^14
because you know that log(3) 3 = 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yeah first i moved the 13 to get log (base 3) x^17, then multipled to get log (base3) [x(x^17)]
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
so (x^4)^13 not is equal x^17

so (x^a)^b = x^(a*b)
ok ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it should be 52?
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so when i combine them it would be log(base3) x^53= 14?
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
yes but how can you rewriting the 14 using log(3) ?

3^14= x^54? Im not sure.
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
why exponent 54 ?
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
52+1=53
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i meant to write 53
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah so it would be 4782969=x^53?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
you have any choice ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean?
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
what is the right result ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i get 115911 when i do the 53rd root of the number which it says is wrong
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
you dont missed anything there in this exercise ? ,because this is the right way to solve it sure
