solve 7^x<=1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x<0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you get that?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

\[\large a^x\le y\iff x\le \log_a y\]

OpenStudy (turingtest):

in your case we have\[7^x\le1\]taking the log base seven of both sides we get\[x=\log_71\]and log base anything of 1 is zero, because any number besides zero to the power of zero equals 1\[\log_a0=1\iff a^0=1;x\neq0\]

OpenStudy (turingtest):

sorry, typo\[x\le\log_71=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ty

OpenStudy (turingtest):

oh wait terrible typo in the last line, should be\[\log_a1=0\iff a^0=1;x\neq0\]it is important to know that\[\log_a0\]is undefined
