Logarithmic fuctions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_{7} 7^9\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Need help on how to do this thank you!

\[\log_{7} 7^9\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, log x = y is the number that when we elevate the base with exponent y it gives x, then 7(base)^y(log)=7^9 -> then y = log = 9

I don't think that is clear, sorry english is not my native language.

YEs it would be easier if you used the equation images

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The problem is that I used the definition of log so I don't think it would help to use the equation images, but lets try. \[\log_{a} x=y \]By the definition:\[a^y=x\]So when you have x = a^b, by the second equation y = b. Better?

Yes much better thank you
