Answer by funmath(2933) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Is the expression log1 512 an expression that can be evaluated?
No. There is no power you can raise 1 to to get 512.
:
Another thing you can do to prove this to yourself is to try to solve it using change of bases.
log1 512=(ln(512))/(ln(1))=ln(512)/0=undefined
:
You can try putting ln(512)/ln(1) into your calculator, the ti-83 says, "ERR:DIVIDE BY 0".
:
Happy Calculating!!!!
