Which of the following is true regarding the solution to the logarithmic equation below?
log2(x+11)-4
X+ 11-24
X+ 11 16
X-5
O x-5 is not a true solution because log (16) 2
OX-5 is not a true solution because logs(16) 4
O x-5 is a true solution because logz(16)-4
O x-5 is a true solution because loge(16)- 2

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: It is given question and option "=" sing is missing. On some places it should be "=" instead of "=".

Consider the given equation is

[tex]\log_2(x+11)=4[/tex]

Using properties of \logarithm we get

[tex](x+11)=2^4[/tex]             [tex][\because \log_ax=b\Leftightarrow x=a^b][/tex]

[tex]x+11=16[/tex]

[tex]x=16-11[/tex]

[tex]x=5[/tex]

The solution is x=5.

To check the solution, substitute x=5 in the given equation.

[tex]\log_2(5+11)=4[/tex]

[tex]\log_2(16)=4[/tex]

[tex]\log_22^4=4[/tex]

[tex]4=4[/tex]

[tex]LHS=RHS[/tex]

Therefore, x-5 is a true solution because [tex]\log_2(16)=4[/tex].

Answer:

C x = 5 is a true solution because log Subscript 2 Baseline (16) = 4
