Question

how do i find a ?
log(a)=log(1/2)/15

Answer 1

is this log base ten?

Answer 2

yeah, i think... I have to inverse log on both sides to isolate a.... I just don't really know what inverse log is...

Answer 3

as stupid as that sounds.

Answer 4

the inverse log is the exponential
if your base is ten, then the inverse is \(10^x\)

Answer 5

you need a calculator for sure, if
\[\log(A)=\frac{\log(.5)}{15}\] then
\[\large A=10^{\frac{\log(.5)}{15}}\]
