9=5*10^-10+log(x/5)
Divide both sides by 5*10-10
9/( 5*10-10 ) evaluating this, we have.......18,000,000,000
Therefore.....
18,000,000,000 = log (x/5) .........This says that......
1018,000,000,000 = x/5 Muktiplying both sides by 5, we have
x = 5*1018,000,000,000 .......which is a REALLY BIG NUMBER ...... !!!!!
9=5*10^-10+log(x/5)
Divide both sides by 5*10-10
9/( 5*10-10 ) evaluating this, we have.......18,000,000,000
Therefore.....
18,000,000,000 = log (x/5) .........This says that......
1018,000,000,000 = x/5 Muktiplying both sides by 5, we have
x = 5*1018,000,000,000 .......which is a REALLY BIG NUMBER ...... !!!!!
Corrected answer.......(thanks for catching my error, alan!!!)
Subtract 5*10-10 from both sides
9 -5*10-10 = log(x/5) evaluate the left side
8.9999999995 = log(x/5)
Exponentially, this says that
108.9999999995 = x/5 multiply both sides by 5
5*108.9999999995 = x ≈ 4.9999999942435373 X 109
