You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = 3^x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "domain of this function is all real numbers, the function does not cross the x-axis, therefore there are no roots (x-intercepts)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "here is a graph of the equation y = 3^x
\n" ); document.write( ":

\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "the real solution for the inverse, interchange x and y and solve for y
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3^y
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "take the natural logarithm of both sides of =
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "ln(x) = y * ln(3)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y = ln(x)/ln(3)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "f^(-1) (x) = ln(x)/ln(3) for x > 0
