Simplify/Condense log base 14 of 1/( square root of 14)

$\log_{14} (\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}})$

Step 1

Multiply $\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ by $\frac{\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{14}}$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{14}})$

Step 2

Combine and simplify the denominator.

Multiply $\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ by $\frac{\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{14}}$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{14} \sqrt{14}})$

Raise $\sqrt{14}$ to the power of $1$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{{\sqrt{14}}^{1} \sqrt{14}})$

Raise $\sqrt{14}$ to the power of $1$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{{\sqrt{14}}^{1} {\sqrt{14}}^{1}})$

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{{\sqrt{14}}^{1 + 1}})$

Add $1$ and $1$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{{\sqrt{14}}^{2}})$

Rewrite ${\sqrt{14}}^{2}$ as $14$ .

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt{14}$ as $14^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{{(14^{\frac{1}{2}})}^{2}})$

Apply the power rule and multiply exponents, ${(a^{m})}^{n} = a^{m n}$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{14^{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2}})$

Combine $\frac{1}{2}$ and $2$ .

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{14^{\frac{2}{2}}})$

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{14^{\frac{2}{2}}})$

Rewrite the expression.

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{14^{1}})$

Evaluate the exponent.

$\log_{14} (\frac{\sqrt{14}}{14})$

Step 3

Rewrite $\frac{\sqrt{14}}{14}$ as $\sqrt{14} \cdot 14^{- 1}$ .

$\log_{14} (\sqrt{14} \cdot 14^{- 1})$

Step 4

Rewrite $\log_{14} (\sqrt{14} \cdot 14^{- 1})$ as $\log_{14} (\sqrt{14}) + \log_{14} (14^{- 1})$ .

$\log_{14} (\sqrt{14}) + \log_{14} (14^{- 1})$

Step 5

Use logarithm rules to move $- 1$ out of the exponent.

$\log_{14} (\sqrt{14}) - \log_{14} (14)$

Step 6

Logarithm base $14$ of $14$ is $1$ .

$\log_{14} (\sqrt{14}) - 1 \cdot 1$

Step 7

Multiply $- 1$ by $1$ .

$\log_{14} (\sqrt{14}) - 1$

Step 8

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

$\log_{14} (\sqrt{14}) - 1$

Decimal Form:

$- 0.5$
