Answer 5

this is how its written

Answer 6

@doc.brown no

Answer 7

\(\Large{ \bf log_{\color{red}{ a}}{\color{blue}{ b}}=y\implies {\color{red}{ a}}^y={\color{blue}{ b}}
\\ \quad \\ \quad \\

log(6)\implies log_{{\color{red}{ 10}}}({\color{blue}{ 6}})\implies ?}\)

Answer 8

Answer 18

If you happen to know the values of some other logs, you could work it out without a calculator. For example, \[\log 6 = \log 2*3 = \log 2 + \log 3 \approx 0.30103 + 0.47712 = 0.77815\]

If you do a lot of calculation, you'll find it convenient to memorize logs, square roots, etc. of a handful of values.
