Algebra 2 help and explanation? I get confused when the base of the log isn't 10.


Solve the equation and round to the nearest ten-thousandth.


log2 4x = 5

(2 is the base)

Verified Answer :

log2 4x = log2 5
log2 4 + log2 4x = log2 5
4x = 5
x = 5/4

i am a mathematics teacher. if anything to ask please pm me

The solution to the problem is as follows:


log2 4x = 5.

We could say this as 2 is raised to 5th power and is equal to 4x.
 
Using exponentials, 4x = 2^5 = 32.

Therefore, x = 8.
