$\frac{1}{2} \cdot \log_{5} (x) + \log (5) = 1$

Step 1

Simplify $\frac{1}{2} \log_{5} (x)$ by moving $\frac{1}{2}$ inside the logarithm.

$\log_{5} (x^{\frac{1}{2}}) + \log (5) = 1$

Step 2

Graph each side of the equation. The solution is the x-value of the point of intersection.

$x \approx 2.63525031$
