Im in need of some serious help. Has to do with logarithms? :S?

Question

Write in Logarithmic form.
1) 3^4=81
2) (1/2)^4 = 1/16

Write in exponential form.
3) log(4)32=x
4) log(10)0.01= -2
5) log(a)a=1

(The numbers/letters in parenthesis are like littler, do you know, it kinda looks like exponents, but down, not on top :S) thanks!

Answer 1

1)log(3)81=4
2)log(1/2)1/16=4
with the numbers in parenthesis on subscript (bottom)
3)4^x=32
4)10^-2=0.01
5)a^1=a

Answer 2

The way this works is that log(a)b = c is equivalent to a^c = b. So, as examples, a) 3^4 = 81 is equivalent to log(3)81 = 4 and 3) log(4)32 = x is equivalent to 4^x = 32.

When numbers or other characters are written in a smaller font and set below the other numbers and symbols, they are said to be written in "subscript."
