5^x=-5 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$5^{x} = -5$$
or
$$5^{x} + 5 = 0$$
or
$$5^{x} = -5$$
or
$$5^{x} = -5$$
- this is the simplest exponential equation
Do replacement
$$v = 5^{x}$$
we get
$$v + 5 = 0$$
or
$$v + 5 = 0$$
Move free summands (without v)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$v = -5$$
We get the answer: v = -5
do backward replacement
$$5^{x} = v$$
or
$$x = \frac{\log{\left(v \right)}}{\log{\left(5 \right)}}$$
The final answer
$$x_{1} = \frac{\log{\left(-5 \right)}}{\log{\left(5 \right)}} = 1 + \frac{i \pi}{\log{\left(5 \right)}}$$

$$1 + \frac{i \pi}{\log{\left(5 \right)}}$$
$$1 + \frac{i \pi}{\log{\left(5 \right)}}$$
$$1 + \frac{i \pi}{\log{\left(5 \right)}}$$
$$1 + \frac{i \pi}{\log{\left(5 \right)}}$$

x1 = 1 + ------
log(5)
$$x_{1} = 1 + \frac{i \pi}{\log{\left(5 \right)}}$$
x1 = 1.0 + 1.95198126583117*i
x1 = 1.0 + 1.95198126583117*i
