log ? I must have been out for this whole unit?
1. find the value of x log x289/169=2
2. evaluate the expression log2 1 (in the text the 2 next to the log is below the word a little and then the 1 is normal next to it, how do i write that or type that should I say)
3. evaluate the expression log6 6^2
4. assume that x,y,and z are possitive #’s. use the properties of logarithms to write the expression log (3sqrtx^2y4/z^3 in terms of logarithms of x,y and z.
a)2/3logx+2/3logy+logz b)2/3logx+4/3logy-logz
5. write the equation (1/3)^-5=243 in logarithmic form
6. find the value of x log2 32=x
7. fill in the blank to make it a true satement .To solve 3^x=30 we can take the logarithm of each side of the equation to get log (3^x)=log (30). the power rule for logarithms would then provide a way of moving the variable x from its position as an ____________ to the positive coefficient.
8. x is a possitive #. use the logarithm property to present the expression log(x+2)-logx as the logarithrm singl

i thnk it’s one of the longest qustions in Y!A!;)
so i just answer 2 of them!
1.log x289/169=2 => logx+log289+log169=log100 =>invoice=> x+289+169=100 => x=-358

1.
log x289/169 = 2
log x + log (289/169) = 2
log x + log (17^2 / 13^2) = 2
log x + log (17/13)^2 = 2
log x + 2 log (17/13) = 2
log x = 2 - 2 log (17/13)
log x = 2(1 - log (17/13))
log x = 2(1 - log (17) + log(13))
log x = 2(log (10) - log (17) + log(13))
log x = 2 log (10*13/17)
log x = 2 log (130/17)
log x = log (130/17)^2
x = (130/17)^2
x = 58.4775
2.
log(base 2) 1 = 0
3.
log(base 6) 6^2
= log (6^2) / log 6
= 2 log 6 / log 6
= 2
4. I think instead of 3sqrt you mean cube root
log (cuberoot(x^2 y^4 / z^3))
= 1/3 log (x^2 y^4 / z^3)
= 1/3 (log (x^2) + log (y^4) - log(z^3))
= 1/3 (2log (x) + 4log (y) - 3log(z))
= 2/3log (x) + 4/3log (y) - log(z)
The correct answer is b
5.
log (base 1/3) 243 = -5
6.
log(base 2) 32
= log 32 / log 2
= log 2^5 / log 2
= 5 log 2 / log 2
= 5
7. exponent
I hope this helped (even though a bit late perhaps)
