Question

which of the following is the inverse of \\(y = 6^x\\)?

  • \\(y = \log_6 x\\)
  • \\(y = \log_x 6\\)
  • \\(y = \log_{\frac{1}{6}} x\\)
  • \\(y = \log_6 6x\\)

Explanation:

Swap variables to find the inverse

Using the Logarithmic and Exponential Inverses knowledge point

$$ x = 6^y $$

Solve for y using logarithms

Using the Logarithmic and Exponential Inverses knowledge point

$$ y = \log_{6}x $$

Answer:

  • (A) \(y = \log_{6}x\) (Correct answer)
  • (B) \(y = \log_{x}6\)
  • (C) \(y = \log_{\frac{1}{6}}x\)
  • (D) \(y = \log_{6}6x\)
