Answer:
To solve an exponential equation, take the log of both sides, and solve for the variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Example 1: Solve for x in the equation tex2html_wrap_inline119 .
Solution:
Step 1: Take the natural log of both sides:

Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ DBC + ∠ ABC = ∠ ABD , substitute values
5x - 4 + 8x - 3 = 79
13x + 1 = 79 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
13x = 78 ( divide both sides by 13 )
x = 6
