Evaluate the expression 2log245?.
Solution
In the given question we have to evaluates the value of 2log245. For this simplify the expression by using logarithmic properties. Apply the required property to get the solution of the given expression.
Complete step by step solution:
In this question, the expression for evaluation is 2log245.
Consider the value of xis 2log245.
Then,
\Rightarrow $$$$x={{2}^{{{\log }_{2}}45}}
Now, taking logwith base 2on both sides of equation
Therefore above expression can be written as,
⇒log2x=log22(log245)
Now, we know that the property of logarithm which is log(a)bwe can write this as bloga i.e. logab=bloga.
Therefore, by using property the above expression will be written as,
⇒log2x=(log245)log22
Now, using property of logab=logalogbabove expression can be written as,
⇒log2logx=(log245)log22
Also, log245=log2log45 put this value in above expression
We have,
⇒log2logx=log2log45log22
Now, multiply with log2 to
Now, taking log with base 2 on both sides of the equation.
Therefore above expression can be written as,
\Rightarrow $$$${{\log }_{2}}x={{\log }_{2}}{{2}^{\left( {{\log }_{2}}45 \right)}}
Now, we know that the property of logarithm which is log(a)b we can write this as bloga i.e. logab=bloga
Therefore, by using property the above expression will be written as,
⇒log2x=(log245)log22
Now, using property of logab=logalogb above expression can be written as,
\Rightarrow $$$$\dfrac{\log x}{\log 2}=\left( {{\log }_{2}}45 \right){{\log }_{2}}2
Also, log245=log2log45 put this value in above expression
We have,
\Rightarrow $$$$\dfrac{\log x}{\log 2}=\dfrac{\log 45}{\log 2}{{\log }_{2}}2
Now, multiply with log2 to both sides of the equation. We have
\Rightarrow $$$$\dfrac{\log x}{\log 2}\times \log 2=\dfrac{\log 45}{\log 2}\times \log 2(lo{{g}_{2}}2)
Now, cancelling common factor above expression can be written as,
⇒logx=log45.log22
Then, log22=log2log2 put this value in above equation logx=log45.log2log2
By cancelling the common factor we have the modified equation.
⇒logx=log45
Now we know that if loga=logb then a=b
Therefore,
⇒x=45
Hence, the evaluated value of the expression 2log245 is 45.
Note: The logarithm is the inverse function to exponentiation. That means the logarithm of a given number x is the exponent to which another fixed number the base b, must be raised to produce their number x. For example, the base ten logarithm of 100 is 2 because ten raised to the power of two is 100 that is log100=2 because 102=100.
