You can put this solution on YOUR website!
That's one way you can do it.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"9%5Ex=27\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%5E%282x%29=3%5E3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x=3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=3%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "You can also take the logarithm of both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"9%5Ex=27\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=log%289%2C%2827%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=log%28%2827%29%29%2Flog%28%289%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=log%28%283%5E3%29%29%2Flog%28%283%5E2%29%29\"$
