$$\left(\mathrm{4}.\mathrm{2}\right)^{{x}} \:=\:\mathrm{100} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}\right)^{{x}} \:=\:\mathrm{100} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{log}_{\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}} \left(\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}\right)^{{x}} \:=\:\mathrm{log}_{\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}} \mathrm{100} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{x}\:=\:\mathrm{log}_{\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}} \mathrm{100} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{x}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\:\mathrm{log}_{\mathrm{4}.\mathrm{5}} \mathrm{100}\:\approx\:\mathrm{3}.\mathrm{2}\:\:\: \\ $$

$$\left(\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}\right)^{{x}} =\mathrm{100} \\ $$$${x}\mathrm{ln}\:\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}=\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{100} \\ $$$${x}=\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{ln}\:\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{5}}}=\frac{\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{5}\:+\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{2}\right)}{\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{7}\:−\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{5}\:+\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{3}}\approx\mathrm{3}.\mathrm{20898881204} \\ $$
