Algebra.Com's Answer #62093 by bucky(2189)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! By definition: \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Raise the base to the exponent on the other side of the equal sign and set it equal to the \n" ); document.write( "term in the logarithm. In this case the base is 5, the exponent (on the other side of the \n" ); document.write( "equal sign) is x, and the term in the logarithm is 125. So in exponential form, the \n" ); document.write( "equivalent expression is: \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "From this you can see that x must equal 3 because when 5 is cubed, the answer is 125. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps you to see how to get the exponential form of a logarithm. \n" ); document.write( " |
