Q16
hartnn (hartnn):
for part (i), take log on both sides,
log p=.... ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lg p = lg a^loga x ?

hartnn (hartnn):
yes, now use, \(\log m^n=m \log n\)
hartnn (hartnn):
sorry, n log m
hartnn (hartnn):
what u get ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lg p = loga x * lg a
hartnn (hartnn):
write log, not lg
now use,
\(\huge \log_ab=\frac{\log b}{\log a}\)
so what is log_a x = ??

log x / log a
hartnn (hartnn):
now substitute that in
log p = loga x * log a
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm not sure what to do but is it:
log p = (log x/log a) * log a ?
hartnn (hartnn):
really ?
just cancel out log a from numerator and denominator....
what remains ??
hartnn (hartnn):
and yes, its that

shall i write out all steps ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh wait I got it ><' Thank you so much! :)
hartnn (hartnn):
u want part 2 also ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yup
hartnn (hartnn):
\(If, x=\log_ab \implies b=a^x\)
so what about , q=log_4 3 ??

3 = 4^x
hartnn (hartnn):
u mean 3=4^q ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry yup
hartnn (hartnn):
now u need 3^(1/q) =... ?
so what will u do ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm not sure..?

hartnn (hartnn):
raise both sides to (1/q) exponent...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How do you do that sorry
hartnn (hartnn):
\(\huge 3^{(1/q)}= (4^q)^{1/q}\)
hartnn (hartnn):
\(\huge (4^q)^{1/q}=.....?\)
