Question

Part A: If (72)x = 1, what is the value of x? Explain your answer. (5 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:  (72)^x = 1

Take the log base 72 of each side

log72(72^x) = log 72(1)

We know log a^b = b log a

x log72(72) = log72(1)

x =  log72(1)

x = 0

Part A:  (70)^x = 1

Take the log base 70 of each side

log70(70^x) = log70(1)

We know log a^b = b log a

x log70(70) = log70(1)

x =  log70(1)

x = 0
