Answer to Problem 1RE

The solution of the equation 5x=58 is x=8_.

Explanation of Solution

Procedure used:

To solve an exponential equation in the form of bx=by:

1. If the given equation is not in the form of bx=by, then rewrite it in the above form.

2. For solving x, if bx=by, b>0 and b1 then x=y where x and y are real numbers.

Calculation:

The given equation is 5x=58.

It is observed that the given equation is in the form of bx=by.

Here b=5 satisfies the conditions of 5>0 and 51.

Then the solution will be x=y.

That is, x=8.

Thus, by the above procedure the solution of the equation 5x=58 is x=8_.
