#x=4#

Explanation:

If #log_b a = c#, then #b^c=a#.

Most of the time, #log_10# is written simply as #log#. (Similarly, #log_e# is written as #ln#.)

In this case, #x=log 10000#. We can rewrite this as #x=log_10 10000# and rearrange it to exponential form.

#10^x=10000#

Now, we can change the #10000# so it has a base of #10#.

#10^x=10^4#

#x=4#
