Write each equation in its equivalent exponential form. $$2=\log _{3} x$$

In Exercises \(1-40,\) use properties of logarithms to expand each logarithmic expression as much as possible. Where possible, evaluate logarithmic expressions without using a calculator. $$ \log _{7}(7 x) $$

Solve each exponential equation in Exercises \(1-26\) Express the solution set in terms of natural logarithms. Then use a calculator to obtain a decimal approximation, correct to two decimal places, for the solution. $$e^{x}=5.7$$

Solve each exponential equation in Exercises \(1-26\) Express the solution set in terms of natural logarithms. Then use a calculator to obtain a decimal approximation, correct to two decimal places, for the solution. $$e^{x}=0.83$$

Approximate each number using a calculator. Round your answer to three decimal places. \(5^{\sqrt{3}}\)

Write each equation in its equivalent exponential form. $$2=\log _{9} x$$

Write each equation in its equivalent exponential form. $$5=\log _{b} 32$$

India is currently one of the world's fastest-growing countries. By \(2040,\) the population of India will be larger than the population of China; by 2050 , nearly one-third of the world's population will live in these two countries alone. The exponential growth model \(A=574 e^{0.036 t}\) describes the population of India, \(A,\) in millions, \(t\) years after \(1974 .\) By what percentage is the population of India increasing each year?
