Transcript text: Rewrite as an exponential equation.
\[
\log 4=x
\]
Solution
Rewrite the logarithmic equation as an exponential equation.
Understand the logarithmic form
The logarithmic equation \(\log 4 = x\) is in the form \(\log_b a = c\), where \(b\) is the base, \(a\) is the argument, and \(c\) is the result. Here, the base \(b\) is 10 (since no base is specified), \(a = 4\), and \(c = x\).
Convert to exponential form
The exponential form of \(\log_b a = c\) is \(b^c = a\). Substituting the values, we get \(10^x = 4\).
