Solve for x and express your answer as a logarithm. 3(5^x) = 48 Simplify your answer as much as possible. Use the following notations where necessary: For fractions, use the / symbol to separate numerator and denominator, like this: 42/53 For logs with a base of 10, such as log107, just write the log without the base and place the value in parentheses, like this: log(7) For logs with a base other than 10, write the base after an underscore then place the value in parentheses. For example, to write log27, write it like this: log_2(7)

Is log(48) the answer?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

no

OpenStudy (misty1212):

step one is to divide both sides by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@misty1212 (5^x)=16

OpenStudy (misty1212):

yeah

OpenStudy (misty1212):

then write in equivalent logarithmic form apparently they want you to use base 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

log_5^x(16)=1 @misty1212
