If ax = by, then:
A. $$\log \frac{a}{b} = \frac{x}{y}$$
B. $$\frac{{\log a}}{{\log b}} = \frac{x}{y}$$
C. $$\frac{{\log a}}{{\log b}} = \frac{y}{x}$$
D. None of these
Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & {a^x} = {b^y} \cr & \Rightarrow \log {a^x} = \log {b^y} \cr & \Rightarrow x\log a = y\log b \cr & \Rightarrow {{\log a} \over {\log b}} = {y \over x} \cr} $$Related Questions on Logarithm
