At the ball game, 65% of the fans waved Pom-poms. If 133 fans did not wave Pom-poms, how many fans were there in all?

x= 3^y

step-by-step explanation:

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:

i think the answer is b x = 1, y = 35/2
