To solve the equation
for
, we can take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.Taking the logarithm of both sides, we have:
Using the property of logarithms that
, we can simplify the left side of the equation:
Since
, we can further simplify the equation:
Therefore, the exact answer is
.To find the decimal approximation, we can use a calculator to evaluate
:
Therefore, the decimal approximation is
.
