any idea how to find x ?

Yes, we have plenty of ideas! But the point is that you know how to do this, so let's hear your thoughts! You have learned how to solve simple linear equations, literal equations, etc; so you know how to isolate the log. You have learned about logarithms, including the rules for manipulating logs (here), so you know how to get the log of x by itself (with the other strictly-numerical factors and terms on the other side of the equation). What have you tried after that point? Where are you getting stuck?

Please be complete. Thank you! ;)
