Q. Which of the following is equivalent to log4(m)logm(20) \log _{4}(m) \cdot \log _{m}(20) ?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) 55\newline(B) 8080\newline(C) log(5) \log (5) \newline(D) log4(20) \log _{4}(20)
  1. Use Change of Base Formula: We can use the change of base formula for logarithms, which states that loga(b)logb(c)=loga(c)\log_{a}(b) \cdot \log_{b}(c) = \log_{a}(c). This is because loga(b)\log_{a}(b) is the exponent to which 'a' must be raised to get 'b', and logb(c)\log_{b}(c) is the exponent to which 'b' must be raised to get 'c'. When you multiply these, you get the exponent to which 'a' must be raised to get 'c'.
  2. Apply Change of Base Formula: Applying the change of base formula to log4(m)logm(20)\log_{4}(m)\cdot\log_{m}(20), we get:\newlinelog4(m)logm(20)=log4(20)\log_{4}(m)\cdot\log_{m}(20) = \log_{4}(20)
  3. Check Answer Choices: Now we need to check the answer choices to see which one matches our result. The correct answer should be log4(20)\log_{4}(20).
  4. Identify Correct Answer: Looking at the answer choices, we see that (D) log4(20)\log_{4}(20) is the correct match for our result.
