Undergrad How Large Are Mersenne Primes in Decimal Digits?
A prime number is a positive ineger greater than 2 whose only integer divisors are itself and 1. A Mersenne prime in of the form 2^(n) - 1 where p is a prime. For example 2^(5) - 1 = 31 is a Mersenne prime. One of the larger Mersenne prime is 2^(216091) - 1. Estimate the number of decimal digits...- anil

Solve Logarithmic Equation: log(x-1) = log(x-2) - log(x+2)
Yeah Actually i solved it like this: log(x-1) = log(x-2)-log(x+2) log(x-1) = log((x-2)/log(x+2)) 10^log(x-1) = 10^log((x-2)/(x+2)) (x-1) = (x-2)/(x+2) (x-1)(x+2) = (x-2)(x+2)/(x+2)...- anil
