SOLUTION: Find y
Y= log base 6 of 1
And
Y=log base 64 of 8
I don't understand how to do these . If you can provide explation that would be really helpful even for just one of

Thanks in advance. Answer by ikleyn(52800) (Show Source):
(a) Y = = 0.
It is BECAUSE = 1.
For ANY BASE b > 0 and any real number x > 0, = 0, BECAUSE = 1.
(b) To calculate , notice that 64^(1/2) = 8 = .
THREFORE, = .
EXPLANATION : is the DEGREE to raise the number b (the base), to get the number x.
