Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze and solve the two logarithmic expressions presented in the image:
Problem 5:
To solve this:
- The logarithmic part, , means "the power to which 5 must be raised to get 2." This doesn't simplify directly, so let's leave it in logarithmic form for now.
- The entire expression is . We can leave the logarithm as is, and the final expression is just .
For an approximation: Multiplying by 5: So the approximate value is 2.15.
Problem 6:
For any base , , because any number raised to the power of 0 equals 1: So, the value of is 0.
Would you like more details or have any questions on these solutions?
Here are some related questions to deepen your understanding:
- What is the general form of the logarithmic equation?
- How do you convert between different logarithmic bases?
- Why is the logarithm of 1 always 0, regardless of the base?
- How can logarithms be used in solving exponential equations?
- What is the change of base formula for logarithms?
Tip: Always remember that , because a number raised to the power of 1 is itself.
