Thread: Amateur log problem, forgot how to do!

I'm taking a course that requires the use of logs. I forgot how to solve a problem for x like this:

5.75= 4.75 + log [((490(.0230)) +5.90x)/((490(.0215))-5.90x)]

How would you solve this in terms of x (please explain as if teaching a 5 yr old haha..)

Thanks for any help!

I'll assume that your logarithm has a base of e. Please advise if this is incorrect.
