Log125X=2/3
5 years ago
$\log_bX=Y$logbX=Y is equivalent to X=bY.
According to this formula, in our case, X=1252/3 = (53)2/3 = 52 = 25
Hence, X =25
log b Q = (ln b) / (ln Q)
log125 X = (ln X) / (ln 125) = 2 / 3
ln X = (2/3) * (ln 125) = ln (125 2/3 )
1252/3 = (³√125) ² = 5² = 25
ln X = ln(125 2/3) = ln(25)
ln X = ln 25
X = 5
(you can use base-10 log which is just "log" instead of ln and that would work too)

sorry, last post is x = 25 i meant
Since this logarithem form is difficult to work with, we change it to exponential.
The exponential is an inverse of the logarithem function. Therefore, we swapthe x and y of (log125x = 2/3).
Thus, we have 125 as the base, 2/3 as the power and we have 1252/3 = x.
We can then solve for x, 1252/3 = 53 * (2/3) = 52 = 25 = x
The form y=bx can also be written as logb(y)=x.
So log125(x)= 2/3 translates to x= 1252/3=(1252)1/3=25.
X=(125)2/3=[(125)1/3]2=[(5*5*5)1/3]2=(5)2=25

The form y=bx can also be written as logb(y)=x.
So log125(x)= 2/3 translates to x= 1252/3=(1252)1/3=25.
