If the problem is , start by rewriting it in exponential form:

Since this is so close to 7 I think you are supposed to use 7. (If not then you will have to use the quadratic formula on the equation with this very long decimal!?)

Subtracting 7 from both sides:

Factoring:

The only way for a product to be zero is if one of the factors is zero. So:
or
Solving these we get:
