logx b = n
How to solve the logarithmic equation log x b = n?
logx b is logarithm of b to base x
n is the exponent to which you need to raise base a to get x.
log x b = n ⇔ xn = b ⇒ x = b(1/n)
Examples:
log x 2 = 2 ⇔ x2 = 2 ⇒ x = 2(1/2) = 1.414
log x 2 = 3 ⇔ x3 = 2 ⇒ x = 2(1/3) = 1.260
log x √2 = 2 ⇔ x2 = √2 ⇒ x = √2(1/2) = 1.189
log x 8 = 3 ⇔ x3 = 8 ⇒ x = 8(1/3) = 2
