A group of friends were working on a student film. They spent all their budget on costumes and props. They spent $492 on costumes, and 59% of the total budget on props. What was the total budget for their student film?

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:

slope= 1

y-inter slope= 0

x       y

o     0

1       1

2     2

ect.

step-by-step explanation:

your answer is 125y5
