Question 616251: Solve the following exponential equation. Exact answers only. π^(1-8x)=e^(3x)
I know that to start I need to lake the natural log of both sides but I'm not even sure of how to do that. Answer by lwsshak3(11628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve the following exponential equation. Exact answers only.
π^(1-8x)=e^(3x)
take log of both sides
(1-8x)ln(π)=3xlne
lne=1(log of base=1)
ln(π)-8ln(π)x=3x
3x+8ln(π)x=ln(π)
x(3+8ln(π))=ln(π)
x=ln(π)/(3+8ln(π))
