9 x = 27 ( 3 2 ) x = 3 3 3 2 ⋅ x = 3 3 3 2 x = 3 3 ⟺ 2 x = 3 / : 2 ⇒ x = 1.5
You can use logarithms:
Log9(27) which will give you the value of x
X= 1.5
To solve the equation 9 x = 27 , we rewrite both numbers using base 3. Setting the exponents equal after simplifying allows us to find that x = 1.5 .
