Question 22248: Good Afternoon, I am trying to work out some problems but I don't know what I am doing. Can someone please help me? Here is the question.
log8x=2/3

Answer by Earlsdon(6294)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve for x:
Apply the product rule for logaritms: logMN = logM + logN
So:
Subtract log(8) from both sides.
Rewrite in exponential form: logx = y means b^y = x
You can do this on your calculator.
