Solve x
5 * 18^(6x)=26

Question

anonymous · Answer

$$\huge 90^{6x}=26$$
Is that the correct first step?

isaiah.feynman · Answer

Nope. Can't multiply 5 to 18, they have different exponents. Instead divide both side by 5 so 18 is alone.

anonymous · Answer

thats the naswer

@abswag13 I can type things into mathway too. I'm here to learn. Not looking for straight answers
@Isaiah.Feynman so I have 
$$\huge 18^{6x}=\frac{ 26 }{ 5 }$$

snappy little flutter

isaiah.feynman · Answer

Okay. Rewrite 18 as 3 times 6 so its easier.

anonymous · Answer

@abswag13  I wasn't trying to sound snappy or rude. Sorry if I came off that way. I would prefer the work explained before given any answer.

anonymous · Answer

what ever >:(

anonymous · Answer

So I have$$\huge (3*6)^{6x} = \frac{ 26 }{ 5 }$$

isaiah.feynman · Answer

Never mind that. Take the natural logarithm of both sides.
