QuestionFind the logarithm. log(10,000)=\log (10,000)=

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are working with the common logarithm, which is base 10.
2. We need to find the value of log10(10,000)\log_{10} (10,000).

STEP 2

1. Express 10,00010,000 as a power of 10.
2. Use the properties of logarithms to find the solution.

STEP 3

Express 10,00010,000 as a power of 10:
10,000=104 10,000 = 10^4

STEP 4

Use the property of logarithms that states log10(10n)=n\log_{10} (10^n) = n:
log10(10,000)=log10(104) \log_{10} (10,000) = \log_{10} (10^4)

STEP 5

Apply the property:
log10(104)=4 \log_{10} (10^4) = 4
The value of log(10,000)\log (10,000) is:
4 \boxed{4}
