Consider the following. log4(x) (a) Rewrite the logarithm
hi
Recall that \[log_4x =k \iff 4^k = x\] How are you wanting it written?
2?
any way
is x rite?
What? I don't even understand what you're looking for here...
Consider the following. log4(x) (a) Rewrite the logarithm
i got anotehr problem similar to this one, look
Rewrite it how?
log8(x) (a) Rewrite the logarithm as a ratio of common logarithms
Oh, sure.
So what base do you want to use?
Common bases are 10 or e.
answer is log10(x/log10)(8)
So you want to use 10 for the base?
yeah
Ok, so remember what I said.. \[log_4(x) = k \iff 4^k = x\] If \[4^k = x\]Then \[log_{10}(4^k) \ log_{10}(x)\]\[\implies k\cdot log_{10}(4) = log_{10}(x)\]\[\implies k = {log_{10}(x)\over log_{10}(4)}\] But since \(k = log_4(x)\) We have: \[log_4(x) = {log_{10}(x)\over log_{10}(4)}\]
Log10(x)/log10(4) is your final answer?
Log10(x)/log10(4) is your final answer?
