do you have this
10%285-10%5E3x-5%29=9
or this
10%285-10%5E%283x-5%29%29=9
ok
10%285-10%5E%283x-5%29%29=9
50-10%2A10%5E%283x-5%29=9
50-10%5E%283x-5%2B1%29=9
50-10%5E%283x-4%29=9
50-9=10%5E%283x-4%29..............since 10%5E%283x-4%29=10%5E%283x%29%2F10%5E4 we have
49=10%5E%283x%29%2F10%5E4
49%2A10%5E4=10%5E%283x%29

10(5-10^3x-5)=9
x=

10%285+-+10%5E%283x+-+5%29%29+=+9
5+-+10%5E%283x+-+5%29+=+9%2F10
5+-+9%2F10+=+10%5E%283x+-+5%29
4%261%2F10+=+10%5E%283x+-+5%29
10%5E%283x+-+5%29+=+41%2F10
log+%2841%2F10%29+=+3x+-+5
log 41 – log 10 = 3x – 5
log 41 – 1 = 3x – 5
log 41 = 3x – 5 + 1
log 41 = 3x – 4
log+%2810%2C+41%2F10%29+=+3x+-+4 ------- Applying change of base
1.612784 = 3x – 4
1.612784 + 4 = 3x
5.612784 = 3x
5.612784%2F3+=+x, or highlight_green%28highlight_green%28x+=+1.870928%29%29
