solve log(3x + 2) = 3
A) 1000/3
B) 998/3
C) 998
D) 1/3
To solve for x in the equation log(3x + 2) = 3, we first need to convert it to exponential form.
The equation log(3x + 2) = 3 can be rewritten as:
3x + 2 = 10^3
3x + 2 = 1000
Subtracting 2 from both sides gives:
3x = 998
Dividing by 3 on both sides gives:
x = 998 / 3
Therefore, the solution is x = 998/3, which is option B.
