Since , the equation turns into . Letting y=log(x) gets . Moving everything to one side gives . Factoring gives . So y=0 or y=3. If y=0, then x=1. If y=3, the answer depends on what base you are using. Assuming a base of 10, x=1000. So the solution is (1,1000). If the base is some arbitrary number n, then the answer will be (1,n3).
