Question
which statement is true?
\\(y = \log_{10} x\\) is not a logarithmic function because the base is greater than 0.
\\(y = \log_{\sqrt{3}} x\\) is not a logarithmic function because the base is a square root.
\\(y = \log_{1} x\\) is not a logarithmic function because the base is equal to 1.
\\(y = \log_{\frac{3}{4}} x\\) is not a logarithmic function because the base is a fraction.
Define logarithmic function base restrictions
$$
y = \log_{b} x \implies b > 0 \text{ and } b
eq 1
$$
