i need help!!!! solving cube root of 2^3=3/2
first do i get the cube root of 2^3?, idk what to do after that
\[2^3=\frac{3}{2}\] that is false, so something is missing
This isn't an equation. Did you leave out a variable? Without one, this statement is just saying 2 = 1.5.
\[\sqrt[3]{2^3}=2\]
oh, sorry, i'm knew to this. . . cube root of 2^3x = 3/2
is it \[2^{3x}=\frac{3}{2}\]?
or \[\sqrt[3]{2^{3x}}=\frac{3}{2}\]?
if second one then \[\sqrt[3]{2^{3x}}=2^x\]
the second one
so your equation is \[2^x=\frac{3}{2}\]
to solve this for x you have to use logarithms.
no, the one with the 3 outside of the square root
we start with \[\sqrt[3]{2^{3x}}\] yes? which means the cube root?
right
ok now this means the cube root of \[2^3x]
cube root of \[2^{3x}\]
and the cube root of \[2^{3x}\] is \[2^x\]
because the 3's cancel?
in other words \[\sqrt[3]{2^{3x}}=2^x\]\]
yes you can think of it that way.
ok
the cube root of something cubed is just the somehting
oh, alright
so now we have \[2^x=\frac{3}{2}\]
and we want x
so we gotta get x to be a base?
but we don't know it because \[2^1=2, 2^2=4, 2^3=8,...\]
so you have to use logarithms go get it
\[\sqrt[3]{2^{3x}}=2^\frac{3x}{3}=2^x\] i wrote it like this just to show you another way of writing it
we go right to the answer
so solve \[A=b^x\] for x we write \[x=\frac{\ln(A)}{\ln(b)}\] in other words the log of the total divided by the log of the base
\[\log_2(2^x)=\log_2(\frac{3}{2})\] \[x=\log_2(\frac{3}{2})\]
in this case \[b=2\] \[A=\frac{3}{2}\] so our answer is \[x=\frac{\ln(\frac{3}{2})}{\ln(2)}\]
hello my myininaya!
or using change of base formula you can get what satellite got
hey
well i have to object to what you wrote
no no!
to say that \[b^x=A\] means \[x=\log_b(x)\] contains no infromation
i mean it is true, don't get me wrong but they say the same thing exactly
since \[lob_b(x)\] means the number you raise b to to get x. so this is a tautology
right you are just writing in in logarithm form
it "solves' nothing. just rewrites it in a different form
like saying solve \[x^2=2\] and getting \[x=\pm\sqrt{2}\] a miserable tautology
one means find the number whose square is two. and math teacher answer says ok the number whose square is two. thanks for nothing
\[\log_b(a)=\frac{lna}{lnb}\] my answer is only one step from your answer using change of base
yes of course. but to me "change of base" means to solve \[b^x=A\] for x you get \[x=\frac{\ln(A)}{\ln(b)}\]
you are so competitive lol
i want the number you raise b to to get A and that is my answer. now i have some hope of finding it. especially since log is a well defined function
they should have the math Olympics
yes, that is me \[\color{green}{\text{mr competitive}}\]
any way ms graceful, hope you got an answer you like out of this one way or another. my myininaya is the best for sure!
