identify the expression that is equivalent to (look at pic) a) ln3/ln10 n. 10log3 c. ln 10/3 d. 1/log3 e. none
\[\log_{a} b=(\log_{x} b)/\log_{x}a \]
ln mean base e
so is it none of these?
no the answer is there
@dorkkk look at the formula \[\log ^{a} _{b}=\frac{\ln(a)}{\ln(b)}\] here in your question a=10 ,b=3 put in the above formula and let me know answer !
take base 10
@eamier any base can be used .whatever you like !
why use ln. make numerator log 10 base 10, denominator log 3 base 10.
so.. the numerator will be 1
you can write in that way as well and you wrote it correctly !. as i mentioned earlier it is up to you whatever base (except for 0 ,infinity and negative numbers ) you like can be used the only restriction is that the base of numerator and denominator must be same .
this question has given answer there. so i want to make it same as the answer(c). you not seeing the answer?
you ok @dorkkk
not seeing it :/
when we want to change the base, the new base can be anything.. refer above formula. so to make it suitable with the answer we need to do a little try an error.
if you want to make it base e, it will be like this (ln 10)/(ln 3)
no answer like that. try with base 10, and ...
