0.5^{\frac{1}{3160}x}=0.153
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
\log(0.5^{\frac{1}{3160}x})=\log(0.153)
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
\frac{1}{3160}x\log(0.5)=\log(0.153)
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
\frac{1}{3160}x=\frac{\log(0.153)}{\log(0.5)}
Divide both sides by \log(0.5).
\frac{1}{3160}x=\log_{0.5}\left(0.153\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
x=-\frac{\frac{\ln(\frac{153}{1000})}{\ln(2)}}{\frac{1}{3160}}
Multiply both sides by 3160.
