how do you create logarithms?
For a project I am doing in school in need to create 5 logarithms. the answers need to be 24, 22, 10, 5, 11. If you could help me out with how to write them or give me logarithmic equations that would equal those numbers it would help me out a lot!
Thanks (:

by definition, a log is an exponent.
log(baseb)N = X
means b^X = N
for example:
log₂8 = 3
means 2^3 = 8
So, just remember a log IS (the equal sign) an eXponent.
Therefore, to create a log that equals 24, you have to choose a base, take it to the 24th power and get the N.
log₂(16777216) = 24
fortunately, 24 is the largest exponent you're given.
hope this helps! ;)
