Given:

There is a function given as below


F(x)=\log_bx

Required:

For what value of b the given function in decreasing

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is logarithm function

also written as


F(x)=\frac{log\text{ x}}{log\text{ b}}

The base b is determines that if the function is increasing or decreasing

here

for


0the given function is decreasing <p>for</p>[tex]b>1

the given function is increasing

Final answer:

[tex]0
