Solving Exponential Capacity Growth Equations

A logistics specialist is modeling a warehouse's inventory capacity growth using the exponential equation 8x=98{}8^x = 98, where xx represents the number of quarters. To find the exact value of xx, the specialist takes the common logarithm of both sides. What is the exact algebraic expression for xx in terms of common logarithms, and what is the specific logarithm property used to rewrite the exponent as a multiplier?
