The product, logab X logba is equal to?

Parth (parthkohli):

I've heard of lgba, not logba :/

Parth (parthkohli):

Although, if logab = x, then logba will be 1 over x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are any of them bases, eg is logab \[\log_ab \text{ } or \log(ab)\]

Parth (parthkohli):

My guess

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I CAN'T POST IT RIGHT. here is the link it # 19

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what is the product?? anyone??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@tim538 :U there ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can U change a log to a fraction ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good ,so change \[\log_{a} b\] to a fraction ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this might sound stupid, but how do you do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

NP ,when u want to change it to a fraction u take log the number over log its base ex :\[\log_{a} b\] = logb/loga

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u got it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeay thank

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now change the other log to a fraction \[\log_{?} \]---> ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_{b} a *\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

logba > loga/logb

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats right ,now u can multiply ,it will be logb/loga x loga/logb =1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u need more explanation ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no you did a great job thanks!!!
