Question

How do you solve `10 log x = 15`?

Answer 1

Divide both sides by `10` then take exponents to find:

`x = 10sqrt(10) ~~ 31.627766`

Explanation:

First divide both sides by `10` to get:

`log x = 15/10 = 3/2`

Then taking exponents we find:

`x = 10^(log x) = 10^(3/2) = 10^(1+1/2) = 10sqrt(10)`
