Find out x if lgx = -lg2.

To find out x, first we'll have to impose constraints of existence of logarithms:


x>0


lg x=-lg 2


lg x = lg [(2)^-1]


lg x = lg 1/2


We'll use the one to one property of logarithms:


x = 1/2


Because of the fact that the solution is positive, it's convenient, so


x=1/2
