Step 1
a) f(3) = Ioq(3) = 2 (since the square root of 3 is between 1 and 4) b) f(9) = Ioq(9) = 3 (since the square root of 9 is exactly 3) c) f(27) = Ioq(27) = 3 (since the square root of 27 is between 3 and 4) d) f(81) = Ioq(81) = 4 (since the square root of 81 is Show more…

Solve each problem. Suppose $f(x)=\log _{a} x$ and $f(3)=2 .$ Determine each function value. $$(a) f\left(\frac{1}{9}\right)\quad(b) f(27)\quad(c) f(9)\quad(d) f\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right)$$
Inverse, Exponential, and Logarithmic Functions
Logarithmic Functions
Consider a function defined as follows. Given $x,$ the value $f(x)$ is the exponent above the base of 3 that produces $x .$ For example, $f(9)=2$ because $3^{2}=9$ Evaluate a. $f(27)$ b. $f(81)$ c. $f(3)$ d. $f\left(\frac{1}{9}\right)$
