Algebra.Com's Answer #296170 by lwsshak3(11628) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Evaluate log2(log5 5).\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "..\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The log of its base is always equal to 1. This answers the question: What number do I raise the base to equal itself. For example, for base 3, what number do I raise 3 to equal 3? You can see this will be 1 and it will hold for any base. Remember, the base raised to the logarithm of a number is equal to the number. \n" ); document.write( "log5 5=1 \n" ); document.write( "log2(log5 5)=log2(1) \n" ); document.write( "what do you raise the base 2 to get 1? \n" ); document.write( "zero, as 2^0=1 \n" ); document.write( "ans: \n" ); document.write( "log2(log5(5))=0 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
