Answer:
The characteristic of a logarithm is the number to the left of the decimal.
(The characteristic is like an exponent).
We are working with base 3 logs.
So if we are increasing a number by multiplying it by the base of the logarithm, (in this case 3 times 3) then we increase the characteristic by two.
Since 2 is the exponent of 3^2 then to get the log 3 of 72, we get the log3 (8) and increase it by 2.
1.8928 +2 = 3.8928
Had we been working with base 10 logs and we were multiplying a number by 100, We would increase the characteristic by 2 because 100 = 10^2.

Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1/2x - 1/3
This is written in the form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
The slope is 1/2 and the y intercept is -1/3
Answer:
Functions a(x) and b(x) intersect each other at x = 2.
