I have 4 questions that have to do with logs. If someone could help, that'd be great! 1. log6 (10)= x Log6 (7)= y Log6 (4) = z Find log6 (1/9) 2. Log7 (3) = x Log7 (8) = y Log7 (10) = z Find log7 (15/32) 3. Log8 (10)= p Log8 (12) = q Log8 (11) = r Find log8 (5/256) 4. Log8 (12) = p Log8 (5) = q Log8 (9) = r Find log8 (32/27)
Thank you...Only thing is that I can't really use set values for these logs, so...
Could you please post the directions for these problems?
Here are the directions: use the properties of logarithms and the values below to find the logarithm indicated, do not use a calculator to evaluate the logs.
wow that is a tricky one
the idea is to figure out how to write \(\frac{1}{9}\) as a combination of \(4,7,10\) and \(6\)
only operations allowed are multiply, divide, raise to powers, and take roots to get \(\frac{1}{9}\) you can use \[\frac{1}{9}=\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^2=\left(\frac{\sqrt{4}}{6}\right)^2\]
so \[\log(\frac{1}{9})=\log\left(\frac{\sqrt{4}}{6}\right)^2\]
guess i lost her
actually \[\log(\frac{4}{6})^2\] would work better
Yeah ; w ; I'm still pretty stumped..
Huhu, thanks :)
