Explain how to solve 3^x-4=6 using the change of base formula (x minus 4 is the exponent not just x) !

  x ≈ 5.63093

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the log to the base 3, you have ...

  x -4 = log₃(6)

Using the change of base formula, this becomes ...

  x -4 = log(6)/log(3) . . . . . . where the log is to any consistent base

  x = 4 + log(6)/log(3) = 4 +0.77815/0.47712

  x ≈ 5.63093

The "change of base" formula tells you ...

In general, function arguments need parentheses if there is the least possibility of ambiguity. Exponents need parentheses if any arithmetic operation is involved. You equation is better written as ...

  3^(x-4) = 6

or typeset as ...

when studying polynomials, you often hear the terms zeros, roots, factors and x x the multiplicity of a zero is important because it tells us how the graph of the let's look at the graph of a function that has the same zeros
