Example Question #11 : Solving Logarithms

$\log_{5}x=3$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{125}$

125

$\frac{1}{25}$

Correct answer:

125

Explanation:

To solve this equation, remember log rules

$\log_{b}x=y; b^{y}=x$ .

This rule can be applied here so that

5^3=x

and

125=x.

Example Question #11 : Solving Logarithmic Functions

Solve for x:

$log_{3}x=2$

Possible Answers:

x=9

x=2

x=6

x=4

Correct answer:

x=9

Explanation:

In order to solve for x in a logarithmic function, we need to change it into exponential form. That looks as follows:

$log_{b}x=y\rightarrow b^{y}=x$

For this problem, manipulate the log and solve:

$log_{3}x=2$

$3^{2}=x$

x=9
