Question

Which of the following equations is equivalent to log(y)= 3.994 ?

A. y = 3.994^10
B. y = 10+3.994^3.994
C. y = 3.994^3.994
D. y = 10^3.994

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option D: $y = 10^{3.994}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  

log(y)= 3.994

Solution:

A logarithm base b of a positive number x satisfies the following definition:

$y =log_b(x) => b^y =x$

For $x > 0, b >0, b \neq 1$

Also if no base  b  is indicated, the base of the logarithm is assumed to be  10 .

Thus, in log(y)= 3.994 base b is not indicated. so its base is assumed to be 10

now

$log_{10}(y)= 3.994$

Then

$y = 10^{3.994}$
