Question 382220: (a) 3^(2x) = 5

(b) 2e^(x−1) = 7

(c) 5^(1−x) = 10^x

(a) 3^(2x) = 5
2x*log(3) = log(5)
x = log(5)/(2log(3))
It's calculator work from there.
----------------------
(b) 2e^(x-1) = 7

x-1 = ln(3.5)
etc
------------------
(c) 5^(1-x) = 10^x
(1-x)*log(5) = x
log(5) - x*log(5) = x
log(5) = x + x*log(5)
x*(1 + log(5)) = log(5)
x = log(5)/(log(5) + 1)
Calculator work
