Which method do you prefer for solving the equation 2^x=16? Explain.

I'd just ask ma.th wa.y  but...Yhea

Step-by-step explanation:

Create equivalent expressions in the equation that all have equal bases, then solve for  

x

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. 2^x = 16

step 2. ln(2^x) = ln16

step 3. xln2 = ln16

step 4. x = ln16/ln2 = 4ln2/ln2 = 4.

step 5. The method I prefer is using logarithms.
