Question 162055: CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM
Solve the eqation for s.
log(9s-7)=r-2
10^(r-2)=9s-7
10^(r-2)+7=9s-7+7
10^(r-2)+7=9s
(10^(r-2)+7)/9=9s/9
(10^(r-2))/9 + 7/9 =s

Solve for s:
log%28%289s-7%29%29=r-2
====================
First, take the anti-log of both sides of the equation. That means making each side of the equation the exponent of 10:
10%5E%28log%28%289s-7%29%29%29=10%5E%28r-2%29
Use a log property to rewrite the left side of the equation:
9s-7=10%5E%28r-2%29
Solve for s:
9s=10%5E%28r-2%29%2B7
highlight%28s=%2810%5E%28r-2%29%2B7%29%2F9%29
=====================
Good Luck,
