Math Problem Statement

Staright answer

The equation \( \left( \frac{1}{6} \right)^{-3} = 216 \), written in logarithmic form, would be:

Solution

The given equation is:

(16)3=216\left( \frac{1}{6} \right)^{-3} = 216

Converting to logarithmic form:

The general form of converting an exponential equation ab=ca^b = c into logarithmic form is:

logac=b\log_a c = b

Here:

  • a=16a = \frac{1}{6}
  • b=3b = -3
  • c=216c = 216

Thus, the logarithmic form is:

log16216=3\log_{\frac{1}{6}} 216 = -3

Correct Answer:

Option A: log16216=3\log_{\frac{1}{6}} 216 = -3
