Question

Consider the equation log(3x-1)=log2^8. Explain why 3x-1 is not equal to 8. Describe the steps you would take to solve the equation and state why 3x-1 is equal to

Answer 1

(3x-1) not equal to 8 because it's logarithm

10³= 3x -1

Explanation:

log(3x-1)=log2^8

log2^8= 3 because 2^3 = 8

So log(3x-1) = 3

Then 10³= 3x -1
