Q. Solve for a positive value of x x .\newlinelogx(216)=3 \log _{x}(216)=3 \newlineAnswer:
  1. Understand the equation: Understand the logarithmic equation.\newlineThe equation logx(216)=3\log_{x}(216) = 3 means that xx raised to the power of 33 equals 216216.
  2. Convert to exponential: Convert the logarithmic equation to an exponential equation.\newlineUsing the definition of a logarithm, we can rewrite the equation as x3=216x^3 = 216.
  3. Solve for x: Solve for x by taking the cube root of both sides.\newlineTo find xx, we take the cube root of 216216, which is x=216(1/3)x = 216^{(1/3)}.
  4. Calculate cube root: Calculate the cube root of 216216. The cube root of 216216 is 66, because 63=2166^3 = 216.
  5. Verify the solution: Verify the solution.\newlineWe substitute x=6x = 6 back into the original equation to check if it satisfies the equation: log6(216)=3\log_{6}(216) = 3.\newlineSince 63=2166^3 = 216, the equation holds true, confirming that x=6x = 6 is the correct solution.
