plz help mee!! @mathstudent55

Answer 1

@TheSmartOne

Answer 2

wats ur choices?

Answer 3

Is the equation
\(23^x = 6\) ?

Answer 4

23x=6

Log both sides we dont use log base we use log base 23 because the inverse property of log base 23 of 23 raised to the power of x just equals x
log2323x=log236

x=log6/log23

Answer 5

do u have it?

Answer 6

so thats the answer? @Albany_Goon

Answer 7

@Directrix help me plzz!!!

Answer 8

The question has been answered, hasn't it?

Answer 9

yes srry i stepped out

Answer 10

np thanks for your help :) @Albany_Goon

Answer 11

\(23^x = 6\)

\(\log 23^x = \log 6\)

\(x \log 23 = \log 6\)

\(x = \dfrac{\log 6}{\log 23} \)
