Answer:
If you need the answer as f by simplifying both sides of the equation and then isolating the variable, the answer would be:

Or, if you need to evaluate the function itself, the answer would be:

The answer to your question is 11/12
Start by dividing both sides by 2 to get

. Doing the math on the right, keeping in mind that logs have an unwritten base of 10, gives us

. Rewriting this in exponential form is

. That means that x = 8. Not negative, only positive.
From the equation we see that the center of the circle is at (-2,3) and the radius is 9.
So using the distance formula we can see if the distance from the center to the point (8,4) is 9 units from the center of the circle...
d^2=(8--2)^2+(4-3)^2 and d^2=r^2=81 so
81=10^2+1^2
81=101 which is not true...
So the point (8,4) is √101≈10.05 units away from the center, which is greater than the radius of the circle.
Thus the point lies outside or on the exterior of the circle...
