Logs are easy if you remember the equivalents http://www.ifomia.com/formula/math/logar…
For 1: Use basic algebra to solve for x.
For 2: Re-write 1/81 in terms of 3. Hint 3 to what power equals 81?
For 3: It's a rule you should remember... just google it then memorize it.
It's better to learn and understand the rules, so you will know how to solve them on tests and such.
