.

            The solution and the answer by @josgarithmetic both are WRONG.

            The correct solution is below.


We start from

    3*log(y) = log(2) + log(x).


As the post is written, the base of logarithms is 10; but it does not play any role in that what follows.


The domain of logarithm function is y > 0, x > 0.


From the given equation

     = log(2x),

    y^3 = 2x

    y = .


ANSWER.  y = .

Solved.
