Evaluate each expression without using a calculator. log64 8

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recognize that the expression \( \log_{64} 8 \) asks for the exponent \( x \) such that \( 64^x = 8 \).
Express both 64 and 8 as powers of the same base. Since both are powers of 2, write \( 64 = 2^6 \) and \( 8 = 2^3 \).
Rewrite the equation \( 64^x = 8 \) as \( (2^6)^x = 2^3 \).
Use the power of a power property to simplify the left side: \( 2^{6x} = 2^3 \).
Since the bases are the same, set the exponents equal: \( 6x = 3 \), then solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides by 6.

Logarithm Definition

A logarithm answers the question: to what exponent must the base be raised to produce a given number? For example, log_b(a) = c means b^c = a. Understanding this definition is essential to evaluate logarithmic expressions.
