Solve for x
log 1000=x
log 1000 = x
raise to power of 10:
10^(log1000)=10^x
1000=10^x
x=3
To solve for x in the equation log 1000 = x, we need to understand what the equation represents. In this case, we have the logarithm base 10 of 1000 equals x.
To solve for x, we want to determine the power to which we raise 10 to get 1000.
In other words, we are looking for the exponent that will make the equation true.
Since 10 raised to the power of x equals 1000, we can write this as:
10^x = 1000
To determine the value of x, we can rewrite 1000 as a power of 10:
1000 = 10^3
Now we have:
10^x = 10^3
To solve for x, we can equate the exponents:
x = 3
Therefore, x = 3 is the solution to the equation log 1000 = x.
