Rewrite each given equation as

p=q^r\implies \log_p(p)=\log_p(q^r)\implies 1=r\log_p(q)\implies r=\dfrac1{\log_p(q)}=\dfrac{\ln(q)}{\ln(p)}

q=r^p\implies \log_q(q)=\log_q(r^p)\implies 1=p\log_q(r)\implies p=\dfrac1{\log_q(r)}=\dfrac{\ln(r)}{\ln(q)}

r=p^q\implies \log_r(r)=\log_r(p^q)\implies 1=q\log_r(p)\implies q=\dfrac1{\log_r(p)}=\dfrac{\ln(p)}{\ln(r)}

where each of the last equalities follows from the change-of-base identity,

\log_m(n)=\dfrac{\log_b(n)}{\log_b(m)}

for any base <em>b</em> > 0 and <em>b</em> ≠ 1. I picked the natural base, <em>e</em>.

Then

prq=\dfrac{\ln(r)}{\ln(q)}\times\dfrac{\ln(q)}{\ln(p)}\times\dfrac{\ln(p)}{\ln(r)}=1

as required.

Can someone please answer these (real answers only)
adell [148]
5. The number of visitors increase in April, spike in August and then decrease in September.

6. December is in winter, therefore many people do not travel during December.

7. There are not a lot of holidays in February and March, so people are either working or going to school instead of visiting.

I hope this helped!
