Write in Exponential Form log base 5 of x+4=2

Problem

(log_5)(x+4)=2

Solution

1. Identify the components of the logarithmic equation (log_b)(y)=a where the base b is 5 the argument y is x+4 and the exponent a is 2

2. Apply the definition of a logarithm, which states that (log_b)(y)=a is equivalent to the exponential form ba=y

3. Substitute the values into the exponential structure to rewrite the equation.

Final Answer

(log_5)(x+4)=2⇒5=x+4
