Answer:
one is not linear
Step-by-step explanation:
Properties of Logs
logb(x/y) = log<span>bx</span> - log<span>by</span>.
therefore
log5 (4/7)= log5 (4)- log5 (7)
<span>Solve log 5 (4) and log 5 (7) with the base change of the logarithm</span>
<span>log 5 4 = log 4 / log 5 </span>
Use the calculator:
<span>
<span>log 5 4 =0.8613531161
</span></span>
log 5 7 = log 7 / log 5
<span>log 5 7 =1.2090619551</span>
<span>log5 (4/7)= log5
(4)- log5 (7)=-0.347708839</span>
Let <em>x</em> = 8.132132132...
Then 1000<em>x</em> = 8132.132132132...
Subtract <em>x</em> from 1000<em>x</em> to eliminate the fractional part:
1000<em>x</em> - <em>x</em> = 8132.132132132... - 8.132132132...
999<em>x</em> = 8132 - 8 = 8124
<em>x</em> = 8124/999 = 2708/333
