No, it isn't!\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Given:
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%5E%2810x%29+=+125\" Take the logarithm of both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "\"log%28%285%29%29%5E%2810x%29+=+log%28%28125%29%29\" Apply the power rule for logs to the left side.
\n" ); document.write( "\"10x%2Alog%28%285%29%29+=+log%28%28125%29%29\" Divide both sides by log(5)
\n" ); document.write( "\"10x+=+log%28%28125%29%29%2Flog%28%285%29%29\" Evaluate the right side with your calculator.
\n" ); document.write( "\"10x+=+3\" Divide both sides by 10.
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x+=+0.3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
