I can't figure out how to solve this the answer is 6.2126 but I get as far as
log base 5 4^(x+1)=x I have tried dividing log(4^(x+1)) into log(S) and get no where near the answer. Any help please? Thanks so much Answer by ccs2011(207) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use the following log property:
When i use log I'm implying log base 5.
Distribute
Get x's on left side
Factor out an x
Divide
