Question

Which of the following is equivalent to 2^4 = 16?
a. log2^4 = 16
b. log4^16 = 2
c. log2^16 = 4
d. log4^2 = 16

Answer 1

note that \[\LARGE \log_a b = x \implies a^x = b\]

Answer 2

Okay, can you talk me step by step on how to work it out?

Answer 3

2^4 = 16 is in the form a^x = b agree?

Answer 4

Yeah

Answer 5

can you tell me which is a?

Answer 6

a is 2.

Answer 7

which is x?

Answer 8

x is 4

Answer 9

and b?

Answer 10

16

Answer 11

so a = 2
x = 4
b = 16

now can you write it as \[\LARGE \log_a b = x?\]

Answer 12

yes,

Answer 13

so the answer would be A.

Answer 14

no check again...be sure to sub right

Answer 15

i thought i did the math right? can you work the problem out for me, so i can see where i went wrong.

Answer 16

look again...a = 2
b = 16
x = 4

\[\Large \log_a b = x\] no math needed

Answer 17

SO ITS C.

Answer 18

YES!!! YAY

Answer 19

thanks :)
