The logarithmic functions log%28b%2C+x%29 and the exponential functions b%5Ex are inverse of each other, hence
y+=+log%28b%2C+x%29 is equivalent to x+=+b%5Ey+

so, convert the exponential equation to a logarithmic equation using the logarithm base (6) of the right side (9x) equals the exponent (-3).
log%286%2C9x%29=-3
