Will give brainiest and question is worth 20 points !! Explain how to solve 5x − 2 = 8 using the change of base formula log base b of y equals log y over log b. Include the solution for x in your answer. Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.

38+105= 143, 39+104=143, and you will find then adding the numbers on opposite sides, moving inwards yields the answer 138 every time. because of this, you’re going to multiply 138 times the number of pairs, which is 34. therefore, 34*138= 4692(i’m sorry if it’s the wrong numbers, but it’s the right concept)
