Find the value of x in each of the following logx 81 4 righ
Find the value of x in each of the following: log_x 81 = 4 rightarrow x = log_4 x = -5 rightarrow x = log_x 4 = 1/3 rightarrow x =
Solution
a) logx(81) = 4
Use the lwas of logaritm : loga(x) = b ----> x = a^b
So, 81= x^4
(3)^4 = x^4
x = 3
b) log4(x) = -5
x = 4^-5
x = 1/1024
c) logx(4) = 1/3
4 = x^1/3
Take cube on both sides
4^3 = (x^1/3)^3
x = 64
