Can someone solve these problems - simple log problems

Hello,

I got stuck with these simple log problems. Can someone solve these problems with detail explanation.

1. log5 10 X log10 15 X log15 20 X log20 25   Ans is 2

2. If 2logx (x-2)=logx 4, find the value of x.   Ans is 4

3. Solve the following equations.

(i)  log 5/4 + log 14 - log 7X/3 = -1   Ans is 75
(ii) 1/2 log (2X+2) + log root of (3X + 4) = 1 + log 2   Ans is 7

4. If log10 (x-2)^2 = 4 then value of x is      Ans is 102

5. If log10 X = 5 then number of digits in number X are

2. If 2logx (x-2)=logx 4,


2. If 2logx (x-2)=logx 4, find the value of x. 
Solition: logx(x-2)^2=logx4
(x-2)^2=4
(x-2)=2
x=4
Ans: 4

4. If log10 (x-2)^2 = 4 then

4. If log10 (x-2)^2 = 4 then value of x is   

Sol: log 10 (x-2)^2 = 4
log 10 (x-2)^2= 4 log 10  10
                    = log 10 10^4
         So,(x-2) ^2=10^4
(x-2) =100
x= 102
Ans: 102

1. log5 10 X log10 15 X log15 20 X log20 25

Soln.:
        log5/log10 * log10/log15 * log15/log20 * log20/log25[Formula logab=logb/loga
       =log5/log25
       =log5/2log5
       =1/2 [Not 2 I think]

Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u....

3.(i) log 5/4 + log 14 - log 7X/3 = -1

Soln.:
       log7x/3=log5/4 + log14  + log1010 [ As log1010=1]
       log7x/3=log(5/4*14*10)[Formula logm + logn = log(mn)]
    =>x=5/4*14*10*3/7=75.

Giv ur best to d world.

3. Solve the following

3. Solve the following equations.

 (i)  log 5/4 + log 14 - log 7X/3 = -1  

Sol: log5- log4+ log 14-log 7x+log3+log10=0
 [(5*14*3*10)/(4*7x)] =1
Solving,x=75

ii) 1/2 log (2X+2) + log root of (3X + 4) = 1 + log 2

Soln.
       1/2log(2x+2) +1/2log(3x+4)=log 10 + log2 [ as logx½=1/2logx]
     =>log[(3x+2)(2x+4)]^1/2=log20
     =>(3x+2)(2x+4)=400

Solve and get x=7...

Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u....

solution to all yur simple log prolems

1. log5 10 X log10 15 X log15 20 X log20 25  

ans:-

=(log5\log10)*(log10\log15)*(log15\log20)log20\log25)
 (b'coz  loga b=loga\log b vid base 10)
=log25\log5 (res tes vil be cut out)
=2log5\log5(b'coz loga^b=bloga base is 10 ven not mentioned)
=1
 

 2. If 2logx (x-2)=logx 4, find the value of x.  

ans:-

=>logx (x-2)^2=logx 4(by above mentiones property)
=>log((x-2)^2)\logx=log4\logx(prop metioned in prv. queston)
=>log(x-2)^2=log4
=>(x-2)^2=4
taking square root on both sides we get
=>x-2=2
=>x=4

3. Solve the following equations.

(i)  log 5/4 + log 14 - log 7X/3 = -1  
(ii) 1/2 log (2X+2) + log root of (3X + 4) = 1 + log 2  

ans:-
i) =>log((5/4)*(14)/(7x/3))= -1*log10 (b'oz loga+logb-logc=log(a*b/c)
   =>15/2x=1/10
   =>x=75

ii) =>log(2x+2)^1/2+log(3x+4)^1/2=log10+log2
   =>log((2x+2)(3x+4))^1/2=log20
   =>3x^6+7x+4=200
   =>x=7
 

4. If log10 (x-2)^2 = 4 then value of x is     
    =>log10 (x-2)^2 = 4*log10 10
    =>(x-2)^2=10^4
taking squre root both sides we get

   =>x-2=100
   =>x=102

5. If log10 X = 5 then number of digits in number X are

=>log10 x=5*log10 10
=>x=10^5=100000

hence no. of digt are 6
 

ii) 1/2 log (2X+2) + log

ii) 1/2 log (2X+2) + log root of (3X + 4) = 1 + log 2
Soln:log(2x+2)^ 1/2 +log (3x+4)^1/2=log 10+log 2
log[(2x+2)^1/2 * (3x+4)^1/2] =log(20)
(2x+2)^1/2  *(3x+4)^1/2 =20
(2x+2)(3x+4)=400
6x^2+14x-392=0
x=-56/6 and 7.
x cannot be -56/6 so 7.
Ans:7
