Question 979125: 1)Write the expression in exponential form.
log(sub b)M=y
2) Solve for x.
x = log(sub4)4
3)Solve for x.
x = log(sub5)1
4)Solve for x.
x=ln sqrt(e)

Write the expression in exponential form.
log%28b%2CM%29+=+y = b%5Ey+=+M
:
2) Solve for x.
x+=+log%284%2C+4%29 = 4%5Ex+=+4 therefore x = 1
:
3)Solve for x.
x+=+log%285%2C1%29 = 5%5Ex+=+1 therefore x = 0
:
4)Solve for x.
x+=+ln%28sqrt%28e%29%29
using a calc here
Find the square root of e
x+=+ln%28sqrt%281.64872%29%29
find the natural log of 1.64872
x = .5
