• Is this going to be on the test?

• Take Log, base 10, on the left hand side

• Take Log, base 3, on the left hand side

• Take Log, base e, on the both sides

• Help?!?

• Start by taking the log, base 3 on the LHS and Log, base 5 on the RHS

• Start by taking the log, base 3 on the LHS

• Take Log, base 10, on both sides.

• When am I ever going to use this?

• Divide both sides by x

• Multiply both sides by Log(3)

• Distribute the Log(3) term

• Use the change of base formula to calculate Log3

• You didn't cover this, did you?
