log2+logx=log32

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does x=30? that seems far too easy.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x = 32 x = 16

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

log 2x = log 32 2x = 32 x = 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use: \[Loga + Logb = Log(ab)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\implies Log2x = Log32 \implies 2x = 32 \implies x = 16\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it was too easy to be true. So when it's logs it multiplys together? in this format that is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have written the formula above.. If the question is given in that form then you can use this..

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

you need to know laws of logs log a + log b = log ab log a - log b = log a/b and log a^n = n log a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you. you were both a very big help but cwrw238 was a little clearer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[Loga + Logb = Log(ab)\] \[Loga - Logb = Log(\frac{a}{b})\] \[Logx^n = n.Logx\]
