can I help
OpenStudy (4meisu):
yes please!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you think it is
OpenStudy (4meisu):
5(a)(i) for reference :)
OpenStudy (4meisu):
Well so far I've simplified it to log2(a^3+4^b/64)=1, but I'm not sure what to do next

I've also got 2^(64-a^3) = 4^b in my working but idk where to go from there
OpenStudy (anonymous):
great what is this from a book or flvs

@4meisu
OpenStudy (anonymous):
are you there
hartnn (hartnn):
` log2(a^3+4^b/64)=1`
how did you get a `+` sign in between?

OpenStudy (4meisu):
oh yep, you're right hartnn
OpenStudy (priyar):
do u know that u can multiply the value when bases are same ?
OpenStudy (priyar):
@4meisu ?
OpenStudy (priyar):
and..here u have base as 2 on the LHS.. so try to write 1 as log something.base 2 OK?
OpenStudy (priyar):
@4meisu ? are u there?

so you got till here?
\(\log_2(\dfrac{a^34^b}{64})=1
\)
?
OpenStudy (4meisu):
Yep, I got till there
OpenStudy (priyar):
now we can write 1 as \[\log_{2} 2\]
OpenStudy (priyar):
do u know that?
