A teacher used the change of base formula to determine whether the equation is correct. open paren the log base 2 of 10 close paren times open paren the log base 4 of 8 close paren times open paren the log base 10 of 4 close paren is equal to 3 Which statement explains whether the equation is correct?

A
The equation is correct since open paren the log base 2 of 10 close paren times open paren the log base 4 of 8 close paren times open paren the log base 10 of 4 close paren is equal to log times open paren 2 times 10 close paren times log times open paren 4 times 8 close paren times log times open paren 10 times 4 close paren is equal to log times 20 times log times 32 times log times 40 is equal to 3
B
The equation is not correct since open paren the log base 2 of 10 close paren times open paren the log base 4 of 8 close paren times open paren the log base 10 of 4 close paren is equal to the fraction with numerator log 10 and denominator log 2 times the fraction with numerator log 8 and denominator log 4 times the fraction with numerator log 4 and denominator log 10 is equal to the fraction with numerator log 8 and denominator log 2 is equal to 4
C
The equation is correct since open paren the log base 2 of 10 close paren times open paren the log base 4 of 8 close paren times open paren the log base 10 of 4 close paren is equal to the fraction with numerator log 10 and denominator log 2 times the fraction with numerator log 8 and denominator log 4 times the fraction with numerator log 4 and denominator log 10 is equal to the fraction with numerator log 8 and denominator log 2 is equal to 3
D
The equation is not correct since open paren the log base 2 of 10 close paren times open paren the log base 4 of 8 close paren times open paren the log base 10 of 4 close paren is equal to log times 10 halves times log times 8 fourths times log 4 tenths is equal to log 5 times log times 2 times log 0 point 4 is equal to negative 0 point 0 8
6

Which expression results when the change of base formula is applied to log sub 4 of open paren x plus 2 close paren ?

A

B
the fraction with numerator log 4 and denominator the log of open paren x plus 2 close paren
C
the fraction with numerator log x plus 2 and denominator log 4
D
the fraction with numerator the log of open paren x plus 2 close paren and denominator log 4
7

Which is equivalent to the log base 2 of n is equal to 4 ?

A
n is equal to log 4 times log 2
B
log n is equal to the fraction with numerator log 2 and denominator 4
C
log n is equal to 4 log 2
D
n is equal to the fraction with numerator log 2 and denominator log 4
8

Which expression can be used to approximate the expression, for all positive numbers A , b , and x , where A is not equal to 1 and b is not equal to 1 ? the log base A of x

A
the fraction with numerator the log base b of x and denominator the log base b of A
B
the fraction with numerator the log base b of A and denominator the log base b of x
C
the fraction with numerator the log base A of x and denominator the log base b of x
D
the fraction with numerator the log base A of b and denominator the log base x of b
10

A
negative 0 point 7 0 8
B
negative 3 point 3 9 6
C
0 point 3 0 4
D
0 point 9 5 5
