You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Step 1: you solve for the right side of the problem
( I typed it in as (log(16)/4) + (log(49)/2) )
logy = .301029957... + .84509804...
logy = 1.146128036...
Step 2: Do the inverse log of that answer
(Inverse log is typically the 2nd then the log key (it's 10%5Ex )
y = 14
