Basics of logarithm

Very Important

$$\log_{a}{1} = 0$$

$$\log_{a}{xy} = \log_{a}{x}+\log_{a}{y}$$

$$\log_{a}{b}^{c} = c \log_{a}{b}$$

$$\log_{b^n}{a}=\dfrac{1}{n}\log_ba\ $$

$$log_a(x/y) = log_a(x) − log_a(y)$$ 

$$log_a(a) = 1$$

Question 1

If $$5 - \log_{10}\sqrt{1 + x} + 4 \log_{10} \sqrt{1 - x} = \log_{10} \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}}$$, then 100x equals

Question 2

For all possible integers n satisfying $$2.25\leq2+2^{n+2}\leq202$$, then the number of integer values of $$3+3^{n+1}$$ is:

Question 3

For a real number a, if $$\frac{\log_{15}{a}+\log_{32}{a}}{(\log_{15}{a})(\log_{32}{a})}=4$$ then a must lie in the range
