Which of the following points does not lie on the graph of y = log3x?
(0, 1), (27, 3), (1, 0)
Solution:
Given, the logarithmic equation is y = log3x
We have to check which point does not lie on the graph of the given equation.
Substitute the value of x-coordinates in the equation and find the corresponding y coordinate.
From the option,
A) (0, 1)
The x-coordinate is 0.
y = log3(0)
The value of log 0 is undefined.
Therefore, the point (0, 1) does not lie on the graph.
B) (27, 3)
The x-coordinate is 27
y = log3(27)
y = log333
By using logarithmic property,
\(log_{b}a^{m}=mlog_{b}a\)
So, y = 3log33
y = 3
Therefore, the point (27, 3) lies on the graph.
C) (1, 0)
The x-coordinate is 1
y = log31
y = 0
Therefore, the point (1, 0) lies on the graph.
Therefore, point (1, 0) does not lie on the graph.
Which of the following points does not lie on the graph of y = log3x?
Summary:
The point (1, 0) does not lie on the graph of y = log3x.
