Solving logarithm help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (adi3):

wht grade is tht

OpenStudy (rational):

\[3\log (2x)=4\] \[\log (2x)=\frac{4}{3}\] change into exponent form : \[2x=10^{\frac{4}{3}}\] \[x=\frac{10^{\frac{4}{3}}}{2}\] use your calculator to simplify

rvc (rvc):

yeah you can do this :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait how'd you turn 4/3 to 10^4/3 ?

rvc (rvc):

we have a rule for that

OpenStudy (rational):

\[\log x = a\] is same as \[x = 10^a\]

OpenStudy (rational):

btw, the default base for log is 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh okay now I get it thanks @rational

OpenStudy (rational):

np:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is not 6.66 it's 10.772
