You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = log7(1/49)
\n" ); document.write( "==============
\n" ); document.write( "Think of a logarithm in terms of what it means in exponent form.
\n" ); document.write( "The \"7\" is the base, the \"1/49\" is the answer, and the logarithm is the exponent. In other words, you problem can be re-written as:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"7%5Ex=1%2F49\"$
\n" ); document.write( "When written in this form, you can easily see that
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28x=-2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "That is your answer.
\n" ); document.write( "Good luck,
