Two things to remember
1. loga x = y is the same as ay = x
2. Log A - Log B = Log (A/B) as long as the bases are the same
so log(subscript 2)24-log(subscript 2)3=log(subscript 5)x
log2(24/3) = log5 x
log28 = log5 x
3 = log5 x
5^3 = x
125 = x
What is the real value of x in the equation log(subscript 2)24-log(subscript 2)3=log(subscript 5)x?
I really cannot remember at all how logs work. I know the answer is 125 but have no idea how to get there. Thanks in advance.
