Here is the complete solution to all the logarithmic expressions on the worksheet, with explanations for each.
---
Key Logarithmic Rules Used:
1.
Definition: `log_b(a) = c` means `b^c = a`.
2.
log_b(1) = 0 for any base `b > 0`, `b ≠ 1` (since any number to the power 0 is 1).
3.
log_b(b) = 1 (since `b^1 = b`).
4.
log_b(b^k) = k.
5.
log_b(1/b^k) = -k (since `b^(-k) = 1/b^k`).
