Question 117637

{{{log(10,(3x))=1}}} Start with the given equation.  Note: Since you did not specify a base, this means that we're going to use the default base 10.



{{{10^(1)=3x}}} Rewrite the equation using the property: {{{log(b,(x))=y}}} ====> {{{b^y=x}}}



{{{10=3x}}} Evaluate {{{10^(1)}}} to get {{{10}}}



{{{10/3=x}}} Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x



So the answer is {{{x=10/3}}} which is approximately {{{x=3.333}}}
