If Log"2n"(1944) = Log"n" (486√2), determine the value of n^6. i got 3.2134 can anyone else answer this? cause i no im wrong
we can do this
it is a pain, but we can do it.
ok cool
the "2n" and "n" are subscripts of log
ok first of all we write these in equivalent exponential form. i will put A = 1944 and B = \[486\sqrt{2}\] and we will put the numbers back when we need them . now now
so this says that \[(2n)^{log_{2n}(A)}=(2n)^{log_n(B)}\]
let me know if you get stuck an any step. i just expontiated both sides, that is i took 2n to the power of both sides
the left hand side is just A. the right hand side is \[2^{\log_n(B)}\times n^{\log_n(B)}\] so we get \[A=2^{\log_n(B)}\times n^{\log_n(B)}\]
now \[n^{\log_n(B)}=B\] so the above equation is \[A=2^{log_n(B)}\times B\]giving \[\frac{A}{B}=2^{\log_n(B)}\]
how we doing so far?
im trying to write it down but still a lil lost
well i will keep writing and then you can ask about any step. i am writing all the steps and will try to give reasons for each one
ok thank you
starting now with \[\frac{A}{B}=2^{\ln_n(B)}\] writing in equivalent log form (now the base will be 2) we get \[\log_2(\frac{A}{B})=\log_n(B)\]
now writing in equivalent exponential form we solve for B to get \[B=n^{\log_2(\frac{A}{B})}\]
Is it n^6 = 2.2315 * 10^1?
actually i am not sure but lets keep going. before we go any further, lets put in the numbers
\[\frac{A}{B}=\frac{1994}{486\sqrt{2}}=4\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{32}\]
so we actually know what \[\log_2(\frac{A}{B}) \] is. it is \[\log_2(\sqrt{32})=\frac{5}{2}\] since \[2^{\frac{5}{2}}=\sqrt{32}\]
hmm im lost still don't no how but im lost
so \[n^{\frac{5}{2}}=486\sqrt{2}\] \[n=(486\sqrt{2})^{\frac{2}{5}}\] \[n^6=(486\sqrt{2})^{\frac{12}{5}}\]
k i no where i got lost at
