The solution

 x    
3  = 8
$$3^{x} = 8$$
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$3^{x} = 8$$
or
$$3^{x} - 8 = 0$$
or
$$3^{x} = 8$$
or
$$3^{x} = 8$$
- this is the simplest exponential equation
Do replacement
$$v = 3^{x}$$
we get
$$v - 8 = 0$$
or
$$v - 8 = 0$$
Move free summands (without v)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$v = 8$$
We get the answer: v = 8
do backward replacement
$$3^{x} = v$$
or
$$x = \frac{\log{\left(v \right)}}{\log{\left(3 \right)}}$$
The final answer
$$x_{1} = \frac{\log{\left(8 \right)}}{\log{\left(3 \right)}} = \frac{3 \log{\left(2 \right)}}{\log{\left(3 \right)}}$$
