Solve:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%5Ex+%2B+2+=+15\"$ Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%5Ex+=+13\"$ Lake the logarithm of both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"log%283%5Ex%29+=+log%2813%29\"$ Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"xlog%283%29+=+log%2813%29\"$ Divide both sides by log(3)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+%28log%2813%29%29%2Flog%283%29\"$ = 2.3347... Round to the nearest hundredth.
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2.33 \n" ); document.write( "
