Re: base change(Original post by otrivine)
hi how do you change the base of this please to make same
logbase3 (2-3x) = logbase9 (2-3x)
how can u make the logbase 9 same as logbase 3?what formula thanks
We want to convert it into base

Your question,

Re: base changeIn this case 2-3x =1 this is so because the log terms must both be zero and the log of one is zero.(Original post by otrivine)

So x equals 1/3 The base 3 and base 9 are irrelevant. -
Re: base changeand for binomial expanssion if for example (3-2x) power n(Original post by steve2005)

how do we work out n/? -
Re: base changeWhat does n/ mean?(Original post by otrivine)
and for binomial expanssion if for example (3-2x) power n
how do we work out n/?
(3-2x)^n what is the question? -
Re: base changeSo you are given (3-2x)^7 and asked for the value of n. I would say the answer was seven.(Original post by otrivine)
like you are given with (3-2x) power n and they ask you to find n how do you do that?
Give us a REAL question and perhaps we can help. -

With this much information it is impossible to find the value of 'n'.
The questions usually give some information about the coefficient of terms which allow to calculate it. -
Re: base changeDid you invent this question?(Original post by otrivine)
(1+x/2)power n , where n is a postivie integer is 7 .
find the value of n
Steve asked you to give a REAL question, you won't see such type of questions anywhere.Last edited by raheem94; 23-05-2012 at 20:46. -
Re: base changeI may be missing something BUT I can't see a question. I suggest you give a real question.(Original post by otrivine)

Re: base changeI suggest you compare what you have written to what is printed in the book.(Original post by otrivine)
no mate its in the book page 77 mixed excersise 5E question 6)a) -
Re: base changeoh sorry(Original post by steve2005)
I suggest you compare what you have written to what is printed in the book.
but how do u do it please tell me sir

Re: base changeIf you don't like to take your time writing you full question then i think we shouldn't waste our time on you.(Original post by otrivine)
no mate its in the book page 77 mixed excersise 5E question 6)a)
Yesterday you said that a question is in the C2 jan 2012 paper, without telling the board.
Several times you have posted questions regarding the book, without telling which module you are talking about.
And right now the question you wrote wasn't complete.
Here is the question:

Don't mind, but i have tried to explain you several times to tell us the full question, if you talk about a book then tell the module, which book is it, and if exam paper remember to tell the board.
but how do u do it please tell me sir
