Obtained by rewriting it in exponential form and simplifying, the solution to the logarithmic equation
\(\log_(64)x = (1)/(2)\) is x = 8,

How to solve for x in the given logarithm?

Exponential form is a mathematical expression that represents a number raised to a certain power, denoted as
\(a^b\), where a is the base and b is the exponent.

Given the equation
\(\log_(64)x = (1)/(2)\), you can rewrite it in exponential form:


\[64^{(1)/(2)} = x.\]

Now, simplify the expression on the left side by evaluating
\(64^{(1)/(2)}\):

8 = x.

So, the solution to the equation is x = 8. This is because
\(64^{(1)/(2)}\) is equal to the square root of 64, which is 8. Therefore, x is 8.
