Final Answer: \(\boxed{0.82}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Given the equation \(7^{x+3}=1705\)

Step 2 :Convert the equation into logarithmic form using the property of logarithms that states \(log_b(a^x) = x*log_b(a)\)

Step 3 :Isolate x by subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation

Step 4 :Calculate x to obtain a decimal approximation

Step 5 :\(x = 0.8240822133181109\)

Step 6 :Round to two decimal places as needed

Step 7 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{0.82}\)
