How do I evaluate: log(1/10)1?

Answer 1

\[\log _{1/10}1\]

Answer 2

the answer states: logn1=0 for all non-zero values of n

Answer 3

I'm confused by that statement.. /:

Answer 4

Use,\[\log_{a} x=\frac{\log_{10}x}{\log_{10} a} \]

Answer 5

In this case x=1, a=1/10

Answer 6

are you aware of the rule that if:\[log_ab=c\]then:\[b=a^c\]

Answer 7

yes I am

Answer 8

so if c=0, the you get:\[b=a^0=1\]
