Algebra 2: What is the value of this log?: logx72

What is a logarithm?

Logarithms are another way of thinking about exponents.

For example, we know that \blueD22start color #11accd, 2, end color #11accd raised to the \greenE4^\text{th}4

th

start color #0d923f, 4, end color #0d923f, start superscript, start text, t, h, end text, end superscript power equals \goldD{16}16start color #e07d10, 16, end color #e07d10. This is expressed by the exponential equation \blueD2^\greenE4=\goldD{16}2

answer: b.

step-by-step explanation:

the y coordinate for point b is 0, and answer b is the only one with that y coordinate.
