What is the first step in solving a logarithmic equation?

• Use a calculator

• Convert it to a quadratic equation

• Convert it to an exponential equation

• Solve it directly

In the equation log base X of 1 million equals 6, what is the base?

• 1 million

• 6

• X

• 10

What is the equivalent exponential form of log base X of 1 million equals 6?

• 6^X = 1 million

• 1 million^X = 6

• X^1 = 6

• X^6 = 1 million

How can you solve the equation X^6 = 1 million by recognizing patterns?

• By identifying that 1 million is 10^6

• By using a calculator

• By guessing the value of X

• By converting it to a logarithmic form

What is the sixth root of 1 million?

• 1

• 10

• 100

• 1,000

Why is the base of a logarithm always positive?

• Because it is a mathematical rule

• Because it ensures real number solutions

• Because negative bases are undefined

• Because it simplifies calculations

How do you verify the sixth root calculation using a calculator?

• By entering the index, pressing math, and selecting the root option

• By entering the number and pressing square root

• By multiplying the number by itself six times

• By converting it to a logarithmic form

What is another method to solve X^6 = 1 million besides using the sixth root?

• Using a logarithmic table

• Converting it to a quadratic equation

• Raising both sides to the power of 1/6

• Guessing the value of X

What is the result of raising 1 million to the power of 1/6?

• 1,000

• 10

• 100

• 1

What is the final solution for X in the equation X^6 = 1 million?

• 1,000

• 10

• 1
