simplify log_{64}(1/2)

Solution

simplify

lo g_{64} (\frac{1}{2})

Solution

- \frac{1}{6}

+1

Solution steps

lo g_{64} (\frac{1}{2})

Factor the number:

64 = 2^{6}

= lo g_{2^{6}} (\frac{1}{2})

Apply log rule:

lo g_{a^{b}} (x) = \frac{1}{b} lo g_{a} (x), a > 0

lo g_{2^{6}} (\frac{1}{2}) = \frac{1}{6} lo g_{2} (\frac{1}{2})

= \frac{1}{6} lo g_{2} (\frac{1}{2})

\frac{1}{2} = 2^{- 1}

= \frac{1}{6} lo g_{2} (2^{- 1})

Apply log rule:

lo g_{a} (a^{b}) = b

lo g_{2} (2^{- 1}) = - 1

= \frac{1}{6} (- 1)

\frac{1}{6} (- 1) = - \frac{1}{6}

= - \frac{1}{6}
