Question 9 Evaluate Given that logx 5 and log y 4 find log
Question 9 Evaluate. Given that logx 5 and log y - 4, find log xy4 21 O 1280 O36 O 80 Question 10 Solve the logarithmic equation. log3(x + 2) + log3(x 2) 1 Question 11 Use the change-of-base formula and a calculator to evaluate each logarithm. log s 157.4 O 0.4515 2.4328
Solution
9. log x= 5 ; (log y= 4 )×4 -> 4 log y= 16
4 log y= log y4=16
log x+log y4=log (xy4)= 5+16=21
10. log3(x+2)+log3 (x-2)=11
log3( (x-2)(x+2))=1
(x-2)(x+2)=31
x2-4=3
x=(7)1/2
11. log 81/2 (157.4)= log (157.4)/log (8)1/2
12. log51=0
50=1
13. ln28= loge28= 3.3322
28= e3.3322
