If (log_{3} x = log_{9} 3), find the value of x.

If (log_{3} x = log_{9} 3), find the value of x.

  • A.
    (3^{2})
  • B.
    (3^{frac{1}{2}})
  • C.
    (3^{frac{1}{3}})
  • D.
    (2^{13})
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

(log_{3} x = log_{9} 3  implies log_{3} x = log_{9} 9^{frac{1}{2}} = frac{1}{2}log_{9} 9)

(log_{3} x = frac{1}{2} )

(therefore x = 3^{frac{1}{2}})
