Answer:

  • x = 0.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

  • 23ˣ = 6

Log both sides:

  • log 23ˣ = log 6
  • x log 23 = log 6      (property of log:  log aⁿ = n log a)
  • x = log 6/ log 23     (use log table or calculator)
  • x = 0.57 (rounded)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 0.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

23ˣ = 6

Log both sides:

log 23ˣ = log 6

x log 23 = log 6      (property of log:  log aⁿ = n log a)

x = log 6/ log 23     (use log table or calculator)

x = 0.57 (rounded)
