Question

Use a calculator to find the value of X accurate to five decimal places. If it is undefined, then indicate undefined.

Answer 1

x = 0.00004

Step-by-step explanation

To solve this we have to apply the exponent of the base of the logarithm rule,

`b^(\log _ba)=a`

The base of log usually is 10, if no other base is indicated, so in this problem, we use both sides as exponents of 10,

`\begin{gathered} 10^(\log x)=10^(-4.41) \\ x=10^(-4.41) \end{gathered}`

Solving in the calculator and rounding to 5 decimal places,

`x=0.00004`
