If x^y=z, what does y equal?

By that notation I mean x to the y equals z.

I have asked this before but can't find the notebook I wrote the answer down in. I think y=(log z)/(log x), but I'm not sure.

If anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

take logs of both sides.

log(x^y) = log(z)
y(log(x)) = log(z)
y = log(z)/log(x)
