i wrote the last question wrong. @uri

anonymous · Answer

Do you know anything about logarithms?

anonymous · Answer

i do, but for some reason I'm drawing a complete blank..

uri · Answer

Then you need to take the log of each side:
Log 2^x = log 49
X log 2 = log 49

anonymous · Answer

There is an easier way however

anonymous · Answer

This is arranged B-E-N (Base, exponent, number) and you just re arrange it B-N-E so it would look like:$$2^{x} = 49$$
to
$$\log_{2}(49 = x$$

anonymous · Answer

Then you would use the change of base formula so you can plug it into your calculator$$\frac{Log(49 }{ Log(2 } = x$$
Which basically comes out to what uri said
