This symbol represents a logarithm. It can be thought of as an inverse to a power.
This symbol represents a logarithm. It can be thought of as an inverse to a power. It is usually written in the form: \(\htmlClass{sdt-0000000017}{y} = \log_{\htmlClass{sdt-0000000003}{x}} \htmlClass{sdt-0000000043}{z}\). In terms of powers, this is equivalent to: \(\htmlClass{sdt-0000000003}{x}^{\htmlClass{sdt-0000000017}{y}} = \htmlClass{sdt-0000000043}{z}\).
