Before sketching the function, it will be helpful to find an expression for x, in terms of y. The function is y = log4(x- 3) +5. This can also be written as follows. X = log4(x - 3) Now rewrite this equation in exponential form. = x - 3 Isolate the variable x. + 3 = x Now use the appropriate expression to calculate the missing values in this table. (Round your answer to five decimal places.) x3.00098 3.01563 3.06250 3.25000
