The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem where \( f(x) = \log_{x^2} 25 \) and \( g(x) = \log_x 5 \), we need to find the values of \( x \) for which \( f(x) = g(x) \). ### Step 1: Rewrite the functions using logarithmic properties We can use the change of base formula for logarithms. The property states that: \[ \log_{a^n} b = \frac{1}{n} \log_a b \] Using this property, we can rewrite \( f(x) \): \[ f(x) = \log_{x^2} 25 = \frac{1}{2} \log_x 25 \] ### Step 2: Set the equations equal to each other Now we can set \( f(x) \) equal to \( g(x) \): \[ \frac{1}{2} \log_x 25 = \log_x 5 \] ### Step 3: Eliminate the fraction To eliminate the fraction, we can multiply both sides by 2: \[ \log_x 25 = 2 \log_x 5 \] ### Step 4: Use the property of logarithms Using the property of logarithms that states \( \log_a b^n = n \log_a b \), we can rewrite the right side: \[ \log_x 25 = \log_x 5^2 \] ### Step 5: Set the arguments equal to each other Since the logarithms are equal, we can set their arguments equal to each other: \[ 25 = 5^2 \] ### Step 6: Solve for x This equality holds true. Therefore, we can conclude that \( f(x) = g(x) \) for all \( x \) in the domain of the logarithmic functions. ### Step 7: Determine the domain The domain of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) must be considered: 1. \( x > 0 \) (since the base of the logarithm must be positive) 2. \( x \neq 1 \) (since the base cannot be 1) Thus, the solution set for \( x \) is: \[ x \in (0, 1) \cup (1, \infty) \] ### Final Answer The values of \( x \) for which \( f(x) = g(x) \) holds are: \[ x \in (0, 1) \cup (1, \infty) \]
