OpenStudy (michele_laino):

what is the base of that logarithm?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no idea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what a logarithm is

Nnesha (nnesha):

hmm looks like x is a base of log ??

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes! I think so @Nnesha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is so confuing to me I'm trying but i don't know this at all

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

then, we have to solve this equation: \[\large {x^{ - 3/2}} = \frac{1}{8}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/4?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

I think x= 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 okay

Nnesha (nnesha):

if x is a base and you have to solve for x then you have to change log to exponential form |dw:1428777555037:dw|
