Answer:


x = \log_b y

Explanation:

Using logarithmic rules:


\log a^x = x \log a


(\log x)/(\log b) = \log_b x

Given the equation:


y = b^x

Taking log both sides we have;


\log y = \log b^x

Apply the logarithmic rule:


\log y = x \log b

Divide both sides by log b we have;


(\log y)/(\log b) = x

Apply the logarithmic rule:


\log_b y = x

or


x = \log_b y

Therefore, the equation in logarithmic form is,
x = \log_b y
