Question

if 5^x = 125, find the value of x

Answer 1

It's very easy, just try raising 5 to different powers until you get 125.
5^1 = 5
5^2 = 5*5 = 25
5^3 = 25*5 = 125
Ah, x is 3!

Answer 2

Answer:

x=25

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out this equation, you need to remove 5 (which is a multiply as its multiplying by x) from the first side by dividing (divide as you do the opposite operation, divide is the opposite of multiply) it by the other.

x= 125 divided by 5

x=125/5

x=25
