Solution:

According to the logarithm-index rule,

$\begin{gathered} \log _bA=c \\ \Rightarrow A=b^c \end{gathered}$

Given the equation:

$\log _2x=5.6$

Thus, we have

$\begin{gathered} x=2^(5.6) \\ x=48.50293013 \\ \Rightarrow x\approx48.50(2\text{ decimal places)} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the solution to the equation is 48.50 (two decimal places).

The correct option is B.
