Given the exponential equation 3x = 243, what is the logarithmic form of the equation in base 10?


Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 310 People

Answered by maham237 @



The answer is x= \frac{log_{10} (243 )}{log_{10} (3 )}

3^{x} =243
Logarithm both sides of the equation:
log_{10} (3^{x} ) = log_{10} (243 )
Since: log (a^{b}) = b*log(a), then: log_{10} (3^{x} ) =x*log_{10} (3 )
Back to our equation:
log_{10} (3^{x} ) = log_{10} (243 ) \\ 
x*log_{10} (3 ) = log_{10} (243 ) \\ 
x= \frac{log_{10} (243 )}{log_{10} (3 )}
