- Question
- If log 1227 =a then log 616 is?
Options- A. 4(3 - a) / 3 + a
- B. 4(3 + a) / 3 - a
- C. 3 + a / 4(3 - a)
- D. 3 - a / 4(3 + a)
- Correct Answer
- 4(3 - a) / 3 + a
Explanation? log1227 = a
? log 27 / log 12 = a
? a log 12 = log 33
? a log ( 3 x 4 ) = 3 log 3
? a[log 3 + log 4] = 3 log 3
? a log 4 + a log 3 = 3 log 3
? a log 22 = ( 3 - a) log 3
? 2a log 2 = (3 - a) log 3
? log 2 / log 3 = (3 - a) / 2a
Now log616 = log16 / log 6 = log 24 / log (2 x 3) = 4 log 2 / ( log 2 + log 3)
= [4 (log 2 / log 3)] / [(log 2 / log 3) + 1]
= 4[(3 - a) / 2a] / [{(3 - a) / 2a } + 1]
= 4(3 - a) / (3 + a) - 1. If log x4 = 0.4 then the value of x is?

- 3. If a x = b, b y = c, c z = a, then the value of xyz is?
Options- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 4 Discuss
- 4. If log (x + 4) = log(4) + log(x) and log (x + 6) = log (6) then which of the following correct?

Correct Answer: 32
Explanation:
logx4 = log 4 / log x = 2/5
? 2log2 / log x = 2/5
? log x =5log 2 = log 25
? log x = log 32
? x = 32
Correct Answer: 21000
Explanation:
logxy =100, log2x = 10
? log y / log x = 100 and log x / log 2 = 10
? log y / log 2 = 100 x 10 = 1000
? log2y = 1000
? y = 21000
Correct Answer: 1
Explanation:
? ax = b
? loga b = x
? by = c
? logb c = y
? cz = a
? logc a = z
? xyz = logab x logbc x logca = 1
Correct Answer: x > y
Explanation:
Given log (x + 4) = log(4) + log(x)
? x + 4 = 4x
? x = 4/3
Similarly y = 5/4
? x > y
Correct Answer: x < y
Explanation:
Given log( x - 5) = log(x) - log(5)
? x -5 = x/5
? x = 25/ 4 ....(i)
Again from question
log(y - 6) = log(y) - log(6)
? y - 6 = y/6
? y = 36/5 ...(ii)
From equations (i) & (ii) x < y
Correct Answer: 0.902
Explanation:
Given Exp.
= log (57 x 100 / 100) + 3log(0.57) + 1/2log(0.57)
= log (0.57) + log 102 + 3log(0.57) +1/2log (0.57)
= (1 + 3 + 1/2) log(0.57) + 2 [? log102 = 2]
= (4.5 x 1.756) + 2 = 4.5 x (-1 + 0.756) + 2
= 3.402 - 4.5 + 2
= 0.902
Correct Answer: 0
Explanation:
? log tan 45 = log 1 = 0
Hence, Whole Expression = (something) x zero
Correct Answer: 1.5150
Explanation:
Since, 0.3274 gives characteristic 1. Therefore value of log (0.3274) = 1.5150
Correct Answer: 24
Explanation:
? log5[(x2 + x ) / x] = 2
? log10(x + 1) = 2
? x + 1 = 25
? x = 24
Correct Answer: a, b, c are in G.P.
Explanation:
? loga, logb, logc are in A.P. Then,
? logb - loga = logc - logb
? log b/a = log c/b
? b/a = c/b
? b2 = ac
? a, b, c are in G.P.
