Full solution

Q. 88. log764 \log _{7} 64
  1. Identify Base and Number: Identify the base of the logarithm and the number whose logarithm is to be found.\newlineIn log764\log_{7} 64, 77 is the base and 6464 is the number.\newlineWe need to express 6464 as a power of 77.
  2. Express as Power of Base: Since 6464 is not an integer power of 77, we need to find a way to express it as a power of 77. We can use the change of base formula for logarithms: logb(a)=logc(a)logc(b)\log_b(a) = \frac{\log_c(a)}{\log_c(b)}, where cc is a new base we choose. Let's choose the natural logarithm (base ee) for this purpose. So, log7(64)=ln(64)ln(7)\log_7(64) = \frac{\ln(64)}{\ln(7)}.
  3. Use Change of Base Formula: Calculate the natural logarithms of 6464 and 77 using a calculator.\newlineln(64)4.15888\ln(64) \approx 4.15888\newlineln(7)1.94591\ln(7) \approx 1.94591
  4. Calculate Natural Logarithms: Divide the natural logarithm of 6464 by the natural logarithm of 77 to find the value of log7(64)\log_7(64).log7(64)4.158881.945912.138\log_7(64) \approx \frac{4.15888}{1.94591} \approx 2.138Since we cannot express 6464 as an exact power of 77, the result will be an approximation.
