You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5%2Alog%283%2Cx%29=35

Divide both sides by 5:
log%283%2Cx%29=+7

Now, translate from logarithmic notation to exponential notation:

3%5E7=x
x=+3%5E7

You might want to see my own NON-TRADITIONAL explanation of LOGARITHMS on my own website. To find my website, use the easy-to-spell and easy-to-remember link www.mathinlivingcolor.com. This link takes you to a single page with a single link near the bottom of the page. Click on this link, and it takes you to my Homepage.

Once you are on my Homepage, look for "Basic, Intermediate, and College Algebra: One Step at a Time." Choose "College Algebra", and look in "Chapter 4," for an entire chapter on LOGARITHMS. Then, the hardest of the problems in these sections are solved IN COLOR on the Math in Living Color page for "College Algebra", Chapter 4.

On the topic of LOGARITHMS, I also have 2 VIDEOS of me teaching this topic a few years before I retired. To find the videos, look on my Homepage for "Rapalje Videos in Living Color." Look in College Algebra for the videos on Logarithms. The videos, like everything else on my website, are all FREE!!! Check it out!! Math is usually not as hard as it looks if you get a decent explanation of it!!

I hope this is helpful. For ANYONE interested in using my FREE website for ANY TOPIC in math, just send me an Email at rapaljer@seminolestate.edu.
