Log(base6)37.9?

Question

The base isn't 10... so how can i find the log?

Answer 1

Properties of log:

Log (base a) b = [log (base 10) b] / [log (base 10) a]

The above formula works for any base, as long as numerator and denominator are both logs of the same base..

So Log (base 6) 37.9 = [log (base 10) 37.9] /[ log (base 10) 6].

Answer 2

log[base 6](37.9)

Use the change of base formula, to *make* it log base 10. The change of base formula goes as follows:

log[base c](a) = log[base b](a) / log[base b](c)
where you can choose your own base b.

Therefore, you can go

log(37.9) / log(6)

or, you can choose base e, and have

ln(37.9) / ln(6)

Both should give you the same result.

Answer 3

The first thing that you need to do is find a beaver. If the beaver isn't wet - then find a way to make it wet.

Since we all know that Tony George likes cocaine - we can assume that he free bases it. That is your base.
