Solve log4(y − 9) + log4(4) = log4(64).
We will use the properties of the logarithm to solve the equation.
Answer: For log4(y − 9) + log4(4) = log4(64), the value of y = 25.
Let us see how we will use the properties of logarithm to solve the equation.
Explanation:
It is given that, log4(y − 9) + log4(4) = log4(64).
We will use the formula log a + log b = log ab.
log4 [4 × (y - 9)] = log4(64)
4 × (y - 9) = 64
y - 9 = 16
y = 25
Hence, for log4(y − 9) + log4(4) = log4(64), the value of y = 25.
