Answer: 6x
Work Shown:
For each step, the logs are all base b. This is to save time and hassle of writing tricky notation of having to write the smaller subscript 'b' multiple times. The first rule to use is that log(x^y) = y*log(x) for any base of a logarithm. The second rule is that meaning that the log base of itself is 1
log(b^(6x)) = 6x*log(b) .... pull down exponent using the first rule above
log(b^(6x)) = 6x*1 .... use the second rule mentioned
log(b^(6x)) = 6x
You want to undo the (-9 1/2), so you will add 9 1/2 to each side
7/4 is the answer to your question
Hi, this should be correct. Hope this helps :)
