SV#3 Unit H Concept 7

Finding logs given approximations

1) In this video we are given a certain set of clues to approximate logs. It is like going on a treasure hunt.However aside from the clues we are given we must add 2 more. they are log base "B" of b equals one because "B" to the first power is "B", and then Log base "B" of 1 equals 0 because "B"  to the 0 power is one. Then we must break apart the numbers UNTIL the number is part of our cues. It is like using a factor tree but in this sense we stop when our number is a clue. Then we expand each log and finally substitute the log for the clue we were given.

2)When attempting this problem we must not forget to add the clues using the properties of logs. Also when breaking it apart make sure once you hit the clue number you stop. Also remember if it is division being used its subtraction and addition is multiplication. When expanding logs remember that each variable must have its own log.
