Answer:
please mark as brilliant answer.
also follow me.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am given that 8^x=0.25=1/4.
Let's take log on both sides.
8*log(X) = -log(4)
By taking log we have skipped the cases of X being negative…
So let's solve for 8log(|8|)=-log(4) = -2log2 and will check the solutions of this equation in the original equation 8^x=1/4
8log(|8|)=-2log(|-2|)
On comparing the 2 sides, we get X=-2 as one solution.
Let's check in the equation 8^x=1/4
(-2 )^(-2)=1/(-2)^2=1/4
Perfect!!
Therefore the solution is X=-2
