...simply exponents (§ 294), therefore, when roots are expressed by fractional indices, The logarithm of a root of a number is equal to the logarithm of the number multiplied by the index of the root. Thus, log 2* = \ oflog 2 = \ x 0.3010 = 0.0753. log .002* = }...

In a table. of logarithms the...find the product of several factors by logarithms. KULE. Add the logarithms of the several factors. Enter the table with the sum as а пеги logarithm,...

...the иth power, 10"* = p". Whence nh — log jo", or n log p = logy. THEOREM X. The logarithm of a root of a number is equal to the logarithm of the number divided by the index of the root. Proof. Let s be the number, and let p be its nth root, so that p = VU and s = p". Hence log s = logp"...

...root, i/N= b", whence it appears (Art. 384) that is the logarithm of y/jV. Hence The logarithm of a root of a number is equal to the logarithm of the number divided by the index of the root. 395. Briefly expressed in formulas the propositions just proved are as follows: (1) }og(NN'N" . . .)...

...the power of a number is equal to the product of the logarithm of the number by the index denoting the power. (iv) The logarithm of the root of a number is equal to the result of dividing the logarithm of the number by the number denoting the root. Let m and n be any...

...11 x 0.4771 = 5.2481. 413. As logarithms are simply exponents, therefore (§381), The logarithm of a root of a number is equal to the logarithm of the number multiplied by the index of the root. Thus, log 2* = J of log 2 = } x 0.3010 = 0.0753. log .002* = J...

...of the power. For, let x be the logarithm of m. Then т = а*, and mr = (a*yr = af. .-. log mP = px, IV. The logarithm of the root of a number is equal to the logarithm of the number divided by thе index of the root. For, let x be the logarithm of m. Then m = of, and m = (aff = cff. 319. An...

...Any root of any number may be found by logarithms as follows: The logarithm of the root of a given number is equal to the logarithm of the number divided by the index of the root. Example. — To find the cube root of 4096, logarithm 4096 = 3-612360 -f- 3 = 1-204120, and the number...

...members of (4), we have whence, by the definition, - = log \?m. (9.) That is, the logarithm of any root of a number is equal to the logarithm of the number divided by the. index of the root. The preceding principles enable us to abbreviate the operations of multiplication and division, by...
