Does the answer to (log_b5)(log_5b) depend on the value of b? (a). Yes (b). No (c). Not enough information to answer

The answer is b

Explanation:

If we use log_a n = loga/logn, we get:

((log5)/logb)(logb/log5)

We can immediately see that this equals 1 IF b > 0.

So I make the assumption that b is a positive real number.

Hopefully this helps!
