Q98 / 160 · WBJEE 2011 · Mathematics

If \(\log _7 2=\lambda\), then the value of \(\log _{49}(28)\) is

  • A
    \((2 \lambda+1)\)
  • B
    \((2 \lambda+3)\)
  • Correct answer
    C
    \(\frac{1}{2}(2 \lambda+1)\)
  • D
    \(2(2 \lambda+1)\)

Solution

Hints: \(\log _{49} 28=\log _{72} 4 \times 7\) \(=\frac{1}{2}\left[2 \log _7 2+\log _7 7\right]=\frac{1}{2}[2 \lambda+1]\)

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
