You can
put this solution on YOUR website!i assume you mean
?
If so, then rewrite it as
now take the log of both sides, but a log to base-3, since log-base3 of 3^2 is 2 etc
4x+5 = 2
4x = -3
x = -3/4
check...
if x was -3/4, then the power becomes 4(-3/4) + 5 --> 2
so we end up with 3^2 = 9 which is correct.
Hope this is clear? ;-)
