Response
Question 5
Part a
Brief Explanations

The logarithmic expression \( \log_{b}(x) \) is read as "the logarithm base \( b \) of \( x \)". So for \( \log_{2}(64) \), we say "the logarithm base 2 of 64".

Brief Explanations

A logarithmic expression \( \log_{b}(x) \) asks the question: "To what power do we need to raise the base \( b \) to get the number \( x \)?" So \( \log_{2}(64) \) means we want to find the exponent \( y \) such that \( 2^{y}=64 \).

Step 1: Recall the definition of a logarithm

The logarithm \( \log_{b}(x) = y \) is equivalent to \( b^{y}=x \). For \( \log_{2}(64) \), we need to find \( y \) such that \( 2^{y}=64 \).

Step 2: Find the exponent \( y \)

We know that \( 2^{6}=64 \) (since \( 2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2 = 64 \)). So by the definition of a logarithm, \( \log_{2}(64)=6 \).

Answer:

the logarithm base 2 of 64
