\frac{20000000000}{2}=10^{x-1}
Divide both sides by 2.
10000000000=10^{x-1}
Divide 20000000000 by 2 to get 10000000000.
10^{x-1}=10000000000
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\log(10^{x-1})=\log(10000000000)
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
\left(x-1\right)\log(10)=\log(10000000000)
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
x=10-\left(-1\right)
Add 1 to both sides of the equation.
