Answer:

k = log9 / log 0.66

k = 5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please always remember that, when an exponential equation is given with different bases, the best approach is to take log of both sides.

If you have a calculator handy, that would be pretty fast and easy.

0.66 ^ k = 9

Take log of both sides:

klog 0.66 = log 9

k = log 9 / log 0.66

k = 0.954 / - 0.18

k = -5.3
