Answer:

q = log4 / log0.53

q = -2.189

Step-by-step explanation:

(0.53)^q = 4

Taking log of both sides!

q log 0.53 = log 4

q = log 4 / log 0.53

q = 0.602 / -0.275

q = - 2.189

This can be checked to confirm correctness.

Substituting q = -2.189

(0.53)^ -2.189 = 1/ 0.249

= 4.01 Proved!

(Note that the "1" is because of the negative sign)
