Chapter 4: Problem 110

Explain how to use your calculator to find \(\log _{14} 283\).

Short Answer

Expert verified
The value of \(\log _{14} 283\) is the result obtained upon executing the operation on the calculator using the Change of Base formula.

Step by step solution

01

Identify the variables

In this exercise, the base (b) is 14 and the argument of the logarithm (a) is 283.
02

Apply the Change of Base formula

Since the basic calculator has a standard base of 10 or e, we can use the Change of Base formula which is \(\log_b a = \log_c a / \log_c b\). Here, substitute a with 283 and b with 14 to get \(\log_{14} 283 = \log_c 283 / \log_c 14\). You may use any value for c, but for most calculators, using 10 or e (natural log) is easiest.
03

Enter the values into your calculator

Now, calculate the values using your calculator. Make sure to do 'log(283) divided by log(14)' if using log base 10, or 'ln(283) divided by ln(14)' if using natural log.
04

Compute the solution

After entering the values into your calculator, compute to get the answer.

a. Simplify: \(e^{\ln 3}\) b. Use your simplification from part (a) to rewrite \(3^{x}\) in terms of base \(e\)

Students in a mathematics class took a final examination. They took equivalent forms of the exam in monthly intervals thereafter. The average score, \(f(t),\) for the group after \(t\) months was modeled by the human memory function \(f(t)=75-10 \log (t+1), \quad\) where \(\quad 0 \leq t \leq 12 . \quad\) Use \(\quad\) a graphing utility to graph the function. Then determine how many months elapsed before the average score fell below 65.

The percentage of adult height attained by a girl who is \(x\) years old can be modeled by $$f(x)=62+35 \log (x-4)$$ where \(x\) represents the girl's age (from 5 to 15 ) and \(f(x)\) represents the percentage of her adult height. Round answers to the nearest tenth of a percent. Approximately what percentage of her adult height has a girl attained at age \(13 ?\)

Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. Because the equations $$\log (3 x+1)=5 \text { and } \log (3 x+1)=\log 5$$ are similar, I solved them using the same method.

In Exercises \(53-56,\) rewrite the equation in terms of base \(e\). Express the answer in terms of a natural logarithm and then round to three decimal places. $$ y=4.5(0.6)^{x} $$
