The logarithmic form of the equation y=loga x is equivalent to the exponential form x=ay. To rewrite one form in the other, keep the base the same, and switch sides with the other two values.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Ok so first, write down the equation. We know that x=3 and y=4. You just basically plug in the terms into the variables. So it would be 3(3)+1/4(4)^2. Simplify that equation and you should get your answer :)
