Question 110274: Fill in the blank to make a true statement. To solve 3^x=27, we can take the logarithm of each side of the equation to get log(3^x)=log(27). The power rule for logarithms would then provide a way of moving the variable x from its position as an __________ to the position of a coeffient.

Question 110358: Explain the difference between a logarithm of a product and the product of logarithms and give examples of each.
I know the logarithm of a product is the sum. I know the second part is multiplication of two logarithms. I just can't think of an example.
I think the logarithm of a product would be log(6*7)= log(6) + log(7)
For the product of two logarithms, multiplication is used. I am confused. Please help...

Question 110791: I tried to rewrite this as e^4=x-4 to solve (I came up with the wrong answer), but I think that isnb't the way to go.
Solve the following logarithmic equation:

Question 110850: I still didn't get an answer for this one. It's not a typo, as far as I know, but I can't get started on it.
Solve the following exponential equation:
49 over(/) 1-1e^3x = 68
If there's a typo, it could be 1-1e^3x is supposed to be read 1-1e_3x, but the 3x definitely looks like a little exponent and not a base.
