Yes, but no solution is expected:



Using the change of base formula,







--> . However, this would result in , not a very nice equation since can be infinite, hence undefined. Therefore there are no real solutions.

Assuming and , (the parameters for the logarithmic base), the expression is one-to-one, and so by property of inverses,
<==> , or 9=6, which is false. Hence the equation has no real solution.
