Q. 11. Find the value of log5 \log _{5} \qquad (AHSME 19501950)\newline22. What is the logarithm of 279493 27 \sqrt[4]{9} \sqrt[3]{9} base 33 ? (AHSME 19531953)
  1. Simplify Radicals: First, simplify 274 \sqrt[4]{27} and 93 \sqrt[3]{9} .\newline- 274=271/4=(33)1/4=33/4 \sqrt[4]{27} = 27^{1/4} = (3^3)^{1/4} = 3^{3/4} \newline- 93=91/3=(32)1/3=32/3 \sqrt[3]{9} = 9^{1/3} = (3^2)^{1/3} = 3^{2/3}
  2. Multiply Simplified Forms: Multiply the simplified forms.\newline- 33/432/3 3^{3/4} \cdot 3^{2/3} \newline- Use the property of exponents: aman=am+n a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n} \newline- 33/4+2/3 3^{3/4 + 2/3}
  3. Add Exponents: Add the exponents 3/4 3/4 and 2/3 2/3 .\newline- Convert to a common denominator: 3/4=9/12 3/4 = 9/12 and 2/3=8/12 2/3 = 8/12 \newline- 9/12+8/12=17/12 9/12 + 8/12 = 17/12 \newline- So, 33/432/3=317/12 3^{3/4} \cdot 3^{2/3} = 3^{17/12}
  4. Find Logarithm: Find the logarithm base 33 of 317/12 3^{17/12} .\newline- log3(317/12) \log_3(3^{17/12}) \newline- Use the logarithmic identity: logb(an)=nlogb(a) \log_b(a^n) = n \log_b(a) \newline- 17/12log3(3) 17/12 \log_3(3) \newline- log3(3)=1 \log_3(3) = 1 \newline- 17/121=17/12 17/12 \cdot 1 = 17/12
