If the number 225 is written in exponential form, what is the base? I think the answer is 5 to the 45th power.
\n" ); document.write( "**
\n" ); document.write( "definition: base raised to the logarithm of a number=number
\n" ); document.write( "for given problem:
\n" ); document.write( "number=225
\n" ); document.write( "To write this number in exponential form you could have many different combinations of base and exponent. For example, if you used base 10, its exponent would 2.3532 or its logarithm base 10. That is, 10^2.3252=225. If you used base e, its exponent would 5.4161 or its logarithm base e. That is, e^2.3252=225. I used base 10 and base e as examples because most calculators have these bases, but these examples would be same for any base. \n" ); document.write( "
