Angie is working on solving the exponential equation 23x = 6; however, she is not quite sure where to start.
Using complete sentences, describe to Angie how to solve this equation.

Use the change of base formula: [tex]log_{b} y=\frac{logy}{logb}[/tex]

Respuesta :

The solution is x = 0.57

The value of the equation 23ˣ = 6 is x = 0.57

What is Logarithm?

The power to which a number must be increased in order to obtain another number is known as the logarithm. A power is the opposite of a logarithm. In other words, if we subtract an exponentiation from a number by taking its logarithm

The properties of Logarithm are :

log A + log B = log AB

log A − log B = log A/B

log Aⁿ = n log A

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

23ˣ = 6   be equation (1)

Now , the equation can be simplified by using logarithm

And , log Aⁿ = n log A

So , substituting the values in the equation , we get

log 23ˣ = log 6

Using the properties of logarithm

x log 23 = log 6

Divide both sides of the equation by log 23 , we get

x = ( log 6 ) / ( log 23 )

x = 0.77815125 / 1.3617278

On simplifying the equation , we get

The value of x = 0.5714

Therefore , the value of x is 0.57

Hence , The value of the equation is x = 0.57
