Which table represents the graph of a logarithmic function in the form y=log3x when b>1?

alex41 [277]

Answer:

The satisfied table of the given function $y = log_{b} (x)$

x 1/8 1/4 1/2 1 2

y -3 -2 -1 0 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation :-

Given logarithmic function $y = log_{b} (x)$ if b >1

Given first table

put x = $\frac{1}{8}$ given b > 1 so we can choose b = 2

$y = log_{2} (\frac{1}{8} )$

$y = log_{2} (2^{-3} )$

we will apply logarithmic formula

log x ⁿ = n log (x)

$y = log_{2} (2^{-3} ) = -3 log_{2} (2) = -3 (1) = -3$

y = -3

ii)

put x = $\frac{1}{4}$ given b > 1 so we can choose b = 2

$y = log_{2} (\frac{1}{4} )$

$y = log_{2} (2^{-2} )$

we will apply logarithmic formula

log x ⁿ = n log (x)

$y = log_{2} (2^{-2} ) = -2 log_{2} (2) = -2 (1) = -2$

y = -2

iii)

put x = $\frac{1}{2}$ given b > 1 so we can choose b = 2

$y = log_{2} (\frac{1}{2} )$

$y = log_{2} (2^{-1} )$

we will apply logarithmic formula

log x ⁿ = n log (x)

$y = log_{2} (2^{-1} ) = -1 log_{2} (2) = - (1) = -1$

y = -1

iv)

put x = 1 given b > 1 so we can choose b = 2

$y = log_{2} (1 )$ = 0

y = 0

v)

put x = $2$ given b > 1 so we can choose b = 2

$y = log_{2} (2 )$

y = 1

Final answer:-

The satisfied table of the given function

x 1/8 1/4 1/2 1 2

y -3 -2 -1 0 1

First of all, we can observe that

$x^2-6x+9 = (x-3)^2$

So the expression becomes

$\dfrac{x^2-4}{\sqrt{(x-3)^2}} = \dfrac{x^2-4}{|x-3|}$

This means that the expression is defined for every $x\neq 3$

Now, since the denominator is always positive (when it exists), the fraction can only be positive if the denominator is also positive: we must ask

$x^2-4 \geq 0 \iff x\leq -2 \lor x\geq 2$

Since we can't accept 3 as an answer, the actual solution set is

$(-\infty,-2] \cup [2,3) \cup (3,\infty)$
