If log520 = x, find x

A.

1.761

B.

1.354

C.

1.861

D.

2.549

Correct Answer: 1.861

Explanation

log520 = x 5x = 20(Take log10 of both sides) log5x = log20 xlog5 = log20 x= [log20 ÷ log20] [1.30103 ÷ 0.69897] x = 1.861

log520 = x 5x = 20(Take log10 of both sides) log5x = log20 xlog5 = log20 x= [log20 ÷ log20] [1.30103 ÷ 0.69897] x = 1.861
