In need of lots of help!
lets start with:
algebra - working with exponents and logarithms-

answer D x = 9square root(3)

Divide both sides by 2



3^x both sides.







Welcome to the forum, young man.


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
