Question

11^x=12 In terms of logarithms

Answer 1

\[b^x=y\iff x=\log_b(y)\]

Answer 2

you should be able to switch back and forth quickly

Answer 3

by "should" i mean it would help you immensely in your math class if you can go back and forth without agony

Answer 4

yeah still work in progress haha just started learning them

Answer 5

i keep getting the incorrect answer I am unsure of how to enter it into the calculator. DO i have to type 11 before the log(12)?

Answer 6

it is not a calculator exercise unless you are solving for x

Answer 7

Iforgot to mention that I am solving for x, sorry.

Answer 8

oh i misread. you are solving for x right?

Answer 9

ok then
\[b^x=y=\iff x=\frac{\ln(y)}{\ln(b)}\]

Answer 10

change 'o base formula

Answer 11

\[x=\frac{\ln(12)}{\ln(11)}\]

Answer 12

ohhhhh i see! how did you know to change it to natural log/natural log?

Answer 13

You could have used \[\log_{10} \]You get the same answer.
\[x=\log_{10}12/\log_{10}11 \]
