Log Question?

Thursday, May 24th, 2007
Ella asked:


5^x + 3^2x = 92
You have to use logs to solve it, and the answer in the back of the book is aprox. 1.93
and guys - YOU CANNOT LOG BOTH SIDES
You can only do that if the sides are single terms such as 5^x * 3^2x
I’ve been told that the answer IS 1.93, but not HOW to get it. please don’t say loyg both sides.. its not right. Thanks..
