4599\times 1.26^{x}=1000000
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
1.26^{x}=\frac{1000000}{4599}
Divide both sides by 4599.
\log(1.26^{x})=\log(\frac{1000000}{4599})
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
x\log(1.26)=\log(\frac{1000000}{4599})
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
x=\frac{\log(\frac{1000000}{4599})}{\log(1.26)}
Divide both sides by \log(1.26).
x=\log_{1.26}\left(\frac{1000000}{4599}\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
