Question

(2Q) Simply the expression.

Answer 1

no simplify. answer is:

b. log(1/7)

Answer 2

d.

`(1)/(7)`

Step-by-step explanation

We want to simplify

`{10}^{ log( (1)/(7) ) }`

Recall that the common logarithm has a base of 10.

This implies that,

`{10}^{ log( (1)/(7) ) } = {10}^{ log_(10)( (1)/(7) ) }`

Recall again that:

`{p}^{ log_(p)(q) } = q`

Therefore,

`{10}^{ log( (1)/(7) ) } = {10}^{ log_(10)( (1)/(7) ) } = (1)/(7)`
