Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's solve the logarithmic problems presented in the image:
-
a.
To solve , we need to determine the power to which 2 must be raised to get 32: Hence, .
-
b.
We know that . Since the logarithm involves a reciprocal, we can apply the property: Therefore, because .
-
c.
Since no base is specified, we assume this is the common logarithm (base 10). We know that: Hence, .
