Answer 1

Let's evaluate each expression to determine which ones are equal to 3:

1. Natural log of e cubed (ln(e³)):

   • Using the property of logarithms, ln(e^x) = x, we have ln(e³) = 3.
   • So this is equal to 3.

2. ln(3):

   • This is just the natural logarithm of 3. It is not equal to 3.

3. log₅(15):

   • We need to determine if 5^3 = 15.
   • 5^3 = 125, not 15. So log₅(15) is not equal to 3.

4. log₄(64):

   • We find if 4^3 = 64.
   • 4^3 = 64, so log₄(64) = 3. Therefore, this is equal to 3.

5. log(1,000) (base 10):

   • We check if 10^3 = 1,000.
   • 10^3 = 1,000, so log(1,000) = 3. This is equal to 3.

6. log(300) (base 10):

   • We check if 10^3 = 300.
   • 10^3 = 1,000, not 300. Therefore, log(300) is not equal to 3.

Conclusion:

The expressions that are equal to 3 are:

• Natural log of e cubed (ln(e³))
• log₄(64)
• log(1,000)
