A logarithm is an exponent. The base of the logarithm is what it is an exponent of. The argument of the logarithm function is the value that you get when you raise the base to the power indicated by the exponent.

Here, the logarithm is 4, so that is the exponent of the base, which is 2. The argument of the log function is 16, so that is the result of raising 2 to the power of 4.

In exponential form, the given expression is equivalent to

2⁴ = 16

What is the solution to StartFraction 5 over 6 EndFraction x minus one-third greater-than 1 and one-third?

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is x > 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > 1\dfrac{1}{3}$

An inequality compares two quantities unlike an equality. An inequality is written with either a greater than ( > ) or lower than ( < ) or greater than equal to ( $\geq$ ) or less than equal to ( $\leq$ ) signs. We solve the above given inequality to find the solutions of the unknown x.

$\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > 1\dfrac{1}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > \dfrac{4}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x > \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{4}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x > \dfrac{5}{3}\\x > 2$

Firstly we change the right hand side quantity to fraction.

We then transfer the - $\frac{1}{3}$ to the right hand side and add them. The inequality sign does not change as we are simply adding or subtracting terms from both the ends.

Finally we divide both sides with $\frac{6}{5}$ to get the required solution. The inequality sign does not change as we are multiplying both the ends with a positive quantity.

This gives us the answer as x > 2.
