Find the positive value of x such that log (x) 64 = 2
Find the positive value of x such that logx64 = 2
Using the logarithm rules, we know that we can rearrange the given equation into the form:
x2 = 64
Knowing this, we square root both sides to get
x = 8, x= -8
As the value of x must be positive, the solution must be
x = 8
