To find the value of x in the logarithmic equation log3(x) = 2
and the equality 2 = 4096
, we first understand that having logb(a) = c
can be rewritten as a = bc
.
In this case, we convert the logarithmic equation to its exponential form:
x = 32
Calculating that gives:
x = 9
Now let’s consider the other part of the question which states 2 = 4096
. It seems there may be some misunderstanding here, as 2
cannot equal 4096
. However, we can compute the value of log3(4096)
to see if it relates to our initial equation. Since 4096
can be rewritten as 212
, we compute:
log3(4096) = log3(212) = 12 * log3(2)
Ultimately, the original equation log3(x) = 2
has a straightforward solution of:
x = 9
