7^(3x-2) = 17
First we will
apply the logarithm for both sides.
==> log 7^(3x-2)
= log 17.
Now we will use the logarithm properties to solve
for x.
We know that log a^b = b*log
a.
==> log 7^(3x-2) = (3x-2)*log
7.
Let us substitute into the
equation.
==> (3x-2)*log 7 = log
17.
Now we will divide by log
7.
==> (3x-2) = log 17 / log
7.
Now we will add 2 to both
sides.
==> 3x = (log 17/log 7) +
2
Now we will divide by
3.
==> x = [(log 17/log 7) + 2 ] /
3
