ANSWER

y = {10}^{ (x)/(6) }


Step-by-step explanation

The logarithmic equation given to us is


x = 3 log( {y}^(2) )


Recall this property of logarithms,



log( {a}^(n) ) = n log(a)




We apply this property to the right hand side to obtain,




x =2 * 3 log( {y} )


This implies that,


x =6 log( {y} )

We now divide both sides by 6 to get,



(x)/(6) =log( {y} )

We now take antilogarithm to get,



{10}^{ (x)/(6) } = y

X = 3 · log(Y²)

X = 3 · 2·log(Y)

X/6 = log(Y)

10^(X/6) = 10^log(Y)

Y = 10^(X/6)
