Is it possible for a logarithm to equal a negative number?
Yes. The logarithm of 1 is zero; the logarithm of any number less than one is negative. For example, in base 10, log(0.1) = -1, log(0.01) = -2, log(0.001) = -3, etc.
What is log base 5of 125?
log(5)125 = log(5) 5^(3) = 3log(5) 5 = 3 (1) = 3 Remember for any log base if the coefficient is the same as the base then the answer is '1' Hence log(10)10 = 1 log(a) a = 1 et.seq., You can convert the log base '5' , to log base '10' for ease of the calculator. Log(5)125 = log(10)125/log(10)5 Hence log(5)125 = log(10) 5^(3) / log(10)5 => log(5)125 = 3log(10)5 / log(10)5 Cancel down by 'log(10)5'. Hence log(5)125 = 3 NB one of the factors of 'log' is log(a) a^(n) The index number of 'n' can be moved to be a coefficient of the 'log'. Hence log(a) a^(n) = n*log(a)a Hope that helps!!!!!
Why is there ten digits in the base ten system?
In any system of counting, there are exactly the same number of digits as the base. They go from 0 to one less than the base.
When one factor in a multiplication problem is less than one is the product greater or less than the other one?
When one factor is less than one, the product will be less than the other factor.
Is three fourths and two thirds greater or less than one?
It is less than. You see if its not one whole than its less than one.
