General Mathematics 11

A logarithm is the opposite of a power. In other words, if we

take a logarithm of a number, we undo an exponentiation

(operation of raising one quantity to the power of another.).

Step 1: First, we need to use the formula ( )

to be able to find the value of "x".

Second, to find the value of "x" we need to make the

Step 2: bases have the same value or simply get the factor of 81.

Third, now that they have the same value of bases, let us
Step 3: now focus on the exponents. (x=4)

Since there is nothing to transpose nor simplify.

Therefore, the missing value of x is 4.

IN LOGARITHMS, NEGATIVE EXPONENTS DON'T PRODUCE POSITIVE VALUES.

FOR EASY SOLVING REMEMBER THIS PHRASE " THE BASE IS RAISED IN WHAT EXPONENT EQUALS THE

ARGUMENT.

Exponential Function is dealt in the form of "y=a^x/

a^y=x" for all positive values of "a", where a is not

equal to 1.

Step 1: First, we need to get the factor of the bases 4

and 8 since they are divisible by 2.

Second, Now that we factored them and they now

Step 2: have the same bases. Let's focus on the exponents.

Third, Simplify the exponents on the

Step 3 : left side and equate it to 3.

Fourth, Eliminate the 4 by dividing

Step 4:
both sides by 4.

Hence, the value of "n" is 3/4.

"Horizontal Line Test shows that exponential function are

one to one and thus have inverse function."
