Solve each equation. x=3log38x = 3 \(\log\)_3 8

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recognize that the equation is given as \(x = 3^{\log_3 8}\), where the base of the exponent and the base of the logarithm are the same (both 3).
Recall the logarithmic identity: \(a^{\log_a b} = b\). This means that when the base of the exponent and the logarithm match, the expression simplifies directly to the argument of the logarithm.
Apply this identity to simplify \(3^{\log_3 8}\) to just 8.
Therefore, the value of \(x\) is equal to 8.
Conclude that the solution to the equation is \(x = 8\).
