How do I evaluate

z^log k?

To evaluate z^log k, you need to understand the log function and the properties of exponentiation. Let's break down the steps:

1. Start by understanding the log function: log k represents the logarithm of k to a specific base. The most commonly used base is 10 (logarithm base 10), but it can also be the natural logarithm base e (ln), or any other base you specify.

2. Find the value of log k: Use a calculator or a logarithm table to find the value of log k based on the specified base. For example, if you are using base 10 and k = 100, then log k = 2 because 10^2 = 100.

3. Substitute the value of log k into the original expression: Replace the log k in z^log k with the value you obtained in the previous step. Now, evaluate z raised to the power of log k.

For example, let's say z = 2 and k = 100. First, find the value of log k (base 10), which is 2. Then substitute this value into the expression:

2^log 100 = 2^2 = 4

So, z^log k evaluates to 4 in this example.
