 Step One8x37+37=12+37 (Add 37 to both sides)Step\ One\rightarrow8^x-37+37=-12+37\ \left(Add\ 37\ to\ both\ sides\right)  
  8x=258^x=25  

6

Solve: 
 8x37=128^x-37=-12  

  • Step 1: Isolate the base & exponent by adding 37 to both sides  8x37+37=12+37 8^x-37+37=-12+37\   

  •  8x=258^x=25  

  • Step 2: Rewrite as a log function  log825=x\log_825=x  

  • Step 3: Solve for x by using the change of base formula. ** Use your calculator!!

  •  (log (25)log (8))=x\left(\frac{\log\ \left(25\right)}{\log\ \left(8\right)}\right)=x  

  •  x = 1.548 (Final Answer)x\ =\ 1.548\ \left(Final\ Answer\right)

Solve:  4x2+14=214^{x-2}+14=21  

  •  4x2+1414=21144^{x-2}+14-14=21-14  

  •  4x2=74^{x-2}=7  

  •  log4(7)=x2\log_4\left(7\right)=x-2  

  •  log4(7)+2=x2+2\log_4\left(7\right)+2=x-2+2  

  •  log4(7)+2=x\log_4\left(7\right)+2=x  

  • ** Use calculator to solve!!

  •  (log7log 4)+2=x\left(\frac{\log7}{\log\ 4}\right)+2=x                              x=3.404x=3.404

Solve:   3ex37=203e^x-37=20  

  •  3ex37+37=20+373e^x-37+37=20+37  

  •  3ex=573e^x=57  

  •  3ex3=573\frac{3e^x}{3}=\frac{57}{3}  

  •  ex=19e^x=19  

  •  ln (19)=x       (Rewrite as natural logusing ln)\ln\ \left(19\right)=x\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \left(Rewrite\ as\ natural\ \log u\sin g\ \ln\right)  

  • Place  ln(19)\ln\left(19\right)  in your calculator to solve!!
