SOLUTION: Hello.
I was doing some practice problems when I was asked to solve for k in Log(10)^3k.
1. Log(10)^3k // Expand-- Move powers become coefficients.
2. 3kLog10 // Log base 10

Question 998000: Hello.
I was doing some practice problems when I was asked to solve for k in Log(10)^3k.
1. Log(10)^3k // Expand-- Move powers become coefficients.
2. 3kLog10 // Log base 10 of 10 equals 1
2. 3k // Just 3k?
Is this solvable? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Your simplification is correct, IF you are using the convention that an unspecified base implies base 10. That is not universally true, by the way. Some authors write to mean , for example.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
