Question

how does the value of \\(\log_{2} 100\\) compare with the value of \\(\log_{6} 20\\)?

  • the value of \\(\log_{2} 100\\) is about 4 times the value of \\(\log_{6} 20\\)
  • the value of \\(\log_{2} 100\\) is about \\(\frac{1}{4}\\) times the value of \\(\log_{6} 20\\)
  • the value of \\(\log_{2} 100\\) is about 3 times the value of \\(\log_{6} 20\\)
  • the value of \\(\log_{2} 100\\) is about \\(\frac{1}{3}\\) times the value of \\(\log_{6} 20\\)

Explanation:

Estimate the value of the first logarithm

Using the Logarithmic Evaluation knowledge point

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Estimate the value of the second logarithm

Using the Logarithmic Evaluation knowledge point

$$ LATEXBLOCK1 $$

Compare the two estimated values

We find the ratio of the first value to the second value:

$$ \frac{\log_2 100}{\log_6 20} \approx \frac{6.64}{1.67} \approx 3.98 \approx 4 $$

Thus, the value of \(\log_2 100\) is about 4 times the value of \(\log_6 20\).

Answer:

  • (A) The value of \(\log_2 100\) is about 4 times the value of \(\log_6 20\) (Correct answer)
  • (B) The value of \(\log_2 100\) is about \(\frac{1}{4}\) times the value of \(\log_6 20\)
  • (C) The value of \(\log_2 100\) is about 3 times the value of \(\log_6 20\)
  • (D) The value of \(\log_2 100\) is about \(\frac{1}{3}\) times the value of \(\log_6 20\)
