Answer: 0.778
This value is approximate
=======================================================
Work Shown:
[tex]\log_{10}(2) \approx 0.301\\\\\log_{10}(3) \approx 0.477\\\\\log_{10}(6) = \log_{10}(2*3)\\\\\log_{10}(6) = \log_{10}(2)+\log_{10}(3) \ \text{ see note below}\\\\\log_{10}(6) \approx 0.301 + 0.477\\\\\log_{10}(6) \approx 0.778\\\\[/tex]
Note: I used the rule that log(A*B) = log(A)+log(B) which works for any valid log base.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the question has already been answered, I'd like to add something new, and explain why: [tex]log_b(a*c)=log_ba+log_bc[/tex]
So let's just say that:
[tex]x=log_ba[/tex] and that [tex]y=log_bc[/tex]
This means that: [tex]b^x=a[/tex] and that [tex]b^y=c[/tex].
So if we were to multiply the two, a and c. You get
[tex]a*c=b^{x+y}[/tex]
This is due to the exponent identity that: [tex]b^a*b^c=b^{a+c}[/tex]
So if you rewrite this in logarithmic form you get:
[tex]log_b{ac}=x+y[/tex]
and remember what x and y are equal to? that's right, it's the logarithms
so now you substitute the logarithms back in and get
[tex]log_b{ac} = log_ba+log_bc[/tex]
