Answer» Logarithmbase25 of 1/5is−1/2 Rewrite as anequation. log25(1/5)=x Rewritelog25(1/5) = x in exponential form using the definition of a logarithm. Ifx andbare positive real numbers andb does not equal1, thenlogb(x)=yisequivalenttob^y=x 25^x=1/5 (5^2)^x=5^−1 5^2x=5^−1 Since thebasesare the same, then twoexpressionsare only equal if theexponentsare also equal. 2x=−1 x=−1/2 |
