Q. Evaluate the logarithm.Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.2log6(33)≈
Problem Understanding: Understand the problem.We need to evaluate the expression 2log6(33) and round the result to the nearest thousandth.
Logarithm Power Rule: Apply the logarithm power rule.The power rule of logarithms states that alogb(c)=logb(ca). We can apply this rule to simplify the expression:2log6(33)=log6(332).
Calculating 33 Squared: Calculate 33 squared.332=33×33=1089.Now the expression is log6(1089).
Evaluating the Logarithm: Evaluate the logarithm.We need to find the value of log6(1089). This can be done using a calculator or logarithm tables.Using a calculator, we find that log6(1089)≈4.523.
Rounding the Result: Round the result to the nearest thousandth.Rounding 4.523 to the nearest thousandth gives us 4.523, as there are no additional digits to consider.
