Question
In the following exercises, use the Change-of-Base Formula, rounding to three decimal places, to approximate each logarithm.$\log _{\sqrt{2}} 17$
Step 1
We can use the Change-of-Base Formula to simplify this. The Change-of-Base Formula is $\log_b a = \frac{\log_c a}{\log_c b}$, where $c$ can be any positive number except 1. Show more…
