Answer:

Answers on edge :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The bases are not the same, so you cannot set 3x - 1 equal to 8.

You can evaluate the logarithm on the right side of the equation to get 3.

You can use the definition of a logarithm to write 3x - 1 = 1000.

This is because logarithm has its own set of properties that is different from algebra. The term log(3x - 1) is equivalent to log 3x/log 1. If we continue to rearrange and find x, the solution would be:

log(3x - 1) = log28
log 3x/log 1 = log 28
log 3x = log 28 * log 1 = 0
3x = 10⁰ = 1
3x = 1
x = 1/3

<em>So, that means 3x - 1 = 3(1/3) - 1 = 0.</em>
