Question #c8320

1 Answer

log(0.01^2/x^3) = -10.64
I assume that log means the logarithm with base 10.

By the property log(a/b)=log(a)-log(b) we get:
log(0.01^2) - log(x^3) = -10.64
log((10^{-2})^2) +10.64=log(x^3)
log(10^{-4}) +10.64=log(x^3)
By the property log(a^b) =b log(a)
-4 log(10) +10.64=3 log(x)
-4 +10.64=3 log(x)
6.64=3 log(x)
6.64/3=log(x)
By definition of logarithm with base 10
x=10^{6.64/3} approx 163,43
