Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

basically logarithms are like reverse exponents

log7, 49 is basically asking 7 to the what gets you 49

because of that its 2 because 7^2 gets you 49

<h3>Answer:    2</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

Recall that any exponential equation of the form b^x = y can be written into its equivalent log form of \log_{b}(y) = x. Note how in both cases, 'b' is the base. For the exponential equation, x is buried in the exponent and y is free on its own. In the log equation, we have y buried in the log and x is free or isolated on its own.

In your case, we have b = 7 and y = 49. This means \log_{7}(49) = x is the same as 7^x = 49 when converting from log form to exponential form. Then we can rewrite that 49 into 7^2 to get 7^x = 7^2. The bases are both 7, so the exponents must be the same as well. Therefore, x = 2.

-------------------

We could follow a different approach. We could apply the change of base formula. The change of base formula is

\log_{b}(x) = \frac{\log(x)}{\log(b)}

On the left side, we have log base b; however, on the right side, the log can be any base we want. Oftentimes it's handy to go with base 10, though again it doesn't matter the base on the right hand side logs.

So we would then say...

\log_{b}(x) = \frac{\log(x)}{\log(b)}\\\\\log_{7}(49) = \frac{\log(49)}{\log(7)}\\\\\log_{7}(49) = \frac{1.69019608002851}{0.84509804001426}\\\\\log_{7}(49) = 1.99999999999999\\\\

Due to rounding error, we don't land exactly on 2 as expected. However, we get close enough.

You need to fill a cylindrical glass with water. the glass is 6 inches tall and 2
Maurinko [17]
Answer:
volume = pi x r^2 ×h
where r is radius and h is height.
h= 6 in
r= 1
V=(22/7)×1^2 ×6
V=18.857in^3
Step-by-step explanation: Since the glass cup is cylindrical in shape, we use the formula for find volume of a cylinder iff the glass cup is to be filled full.
The volume of water will be equal to the volume of the cup. Across the widest point means diameter, hence half diameter gives radius.
