I can't remember how to do this problem..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (acxbox22):

i think it is b

OpenStudy (acxbox22):

but check with @VeritasVosLiberabit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wrong problem.. Hold on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so this is the reverse of the one you posted essentially 8^4=x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8^4=4096..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have the answer key bambi?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that should be right but I need to just check in case

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind that is the answer. I just used change of base and it works as well 4096

OpenStudy (accessdenied):

I agree with the answer, but "how to do this problem" should require steps shown... We have \(\log_8 x = 4 \) Let's make both sides powers of 8. \( 8^{\log_8 x} = 8^4 \) \(f(x) = 8^x\) and \(g(x) = \log_8 x\) are inverse functions by definition, so their composition \(f(g(x)) = 8^{\log_8 x} \) is equal to x. That solves for x right there, and the right side is the value. \(x = 8^4 = 4096 \) And if any part is unclear here, feel free to ask for clarification! Or, you might have an alternate approach. :)
