Question

What is a logarithmic equation?

Expert Solution

Step 1 definition

The logarithm of the number N to the base 'a' is the exponent indicating the power to which the base 'a' must be raised to obtain the number N. this number is designated as log_aN

Step 2 properties

if we have log_aN=log_aM then we can say that N=M.

we get this by comparing the numbers

next, if we have log_aM=N then M=b^N

we can express the number as an exponential equation and further solve it
