Question 747473: Hi tutors,
I have a log question which I'm sure is pretty simple, except to me.
Solve this equation for x. log base3 x =1.1
When they ask for this, am I looking for an actual answer or putting it into exponential form?
Thanks for your assistance and explanations.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
log base3 x =1.1
:
log%283%2C%28x%29%29 = 1.1
the exponent equiv of logs
x = 3%5E1.1
enter above into a calc to get the actual value
x = 3.348
