You can put this solution on YOUR website!
log%28y%2C8%29=15.2
write it as the exponent equiv
y%5E15.2+=+8
using common logs
log%28%28y%5E15.2%29%29+=+log%28%288%29%29
log equiv of exponents
15.2*log(y) = log(8)
15.2*log(y) = .9031
log(y) = .9031%2F15.2
log(y) = .059414
Find the anti-log (10%5Ex) on your calc
y = 1.1466
