Question

3^y=12 use your answer to solve log

Answer 1

y ≈ 2.262

Explanation:

Using the rule of logarithms

log
`x^(n)` = nlogx

Given

`3^(y)` = 12 ( take log of both sides )

log
`3^(y)` = log12 , then

ylog3 = log12 ( divide both sides by log3 )

y =
`(log12)/(log3)` ≈ 2.262 ( to 3 dec. places )

Answer 2

12/log3
