not sure what this represents.

is this 1 and 1/4 = x or is this 1^(1/4) = x

1 and 1/4 is equal to 1.25 which doesn't seem to be a logarithmic type of problem.

1^(1/4) is equal to 1 raised to the power of (1/4) which can be considered to be a logarithmic type problem.

the exponential form and the logarithmic form go hand in hand based on the following definition of logs.

log(b,x) = y if and only if b^y = x

log(b,x) means log of x to the base of b.

b^y means base of b raised to the power of y.

i will assume you mean 1^(1/4) = x

by the basic definition of logs, this is true if and only if log(1,x) = 1/4.

that means log of x to the base of 1 is equal to 1/4.

your answer is:

log base one of x is equals to one quarter.

that looks like the same as my answer, so i would say you did good.
