= 1/4?

shubhamsrg · Answer

?? 
please clarify the ques..

anonymous · Answer

Use properties of logarithms to solve the equations
is the answer 1/4

shubhamsrg · Answer

1/2log(base x) ,,what does this mean ?

anonymous · Answer

so it would be like 1/2 log x and x would be the base

shubhamsrg · Answer

you mean log (1/2) ?? with base x ?

anonymous · Answer

that would be mean that 1/2 is the base

shubhamsrg · Answer

ohh..i see..
and what does log(basex) mean?

anonymous · Answer

its the base

shubhamsrg · Answer

of what ?

OMG a lot confusing


I am sure there is some mistake

vishweshshrimali5 · Answer

@shubhamsrg  what do u think.............. ?

what should we do with only base of log

shubhamsrg · Answer

this is abusrd,,the question has no meaning..

anonymous · Answer

lol

vishweshshrimali5 · Answer

yes......... logs with only bases have no meaning lol

anonymous · Answer

@mathslover yes that is the question!

anonymous · Answer

logs with no bases are by default a base of 10

mathslover · Answer

haha

mathslover · Answer

Bagatrix says that question is right

hahahahahah

vishweshshrimali5 · Answer

but what if logs have ONLY bases

anonymous · Answer

yes.. but is it assumed that these equal 1 if they only have a base?

anonymous · Answer

the base is x lol

mathslover · Answer

I don't know abt that but the question is true :D

mathslover · Answer

Please don't blame the asker hhaah

anonymous · Answer

wait
where is it?

shubhamsrg · Answer

ofcorse the ques is false!!
if log(base2) = y ,say
then 2^y = ??
you need to have a quantity there!!

anonymous · Answer

would it be 1/2log(base x)1-log(base x)1= etc...

vishweshshrimali5 · Answer

2^y = ??
multiply by 0 both sides,

0 = 0
which is true

hence the statement is true

vishweshshrimali5 · Answer

lollllllllllll

hartnn · Answer

read the question ignoring the word base....everything will make sense.....
