Exercise 1.

Can you tell which of the following inequalities are true, without using a calculator?

a) (log_23<log_32)

b) (log_23<dfrac{3}{2})

c) (log_32<dfrac{2}{3})

Exercise 2.

Solve the following inequality [Big(frac{1}{3}Big)^{-frac{7}{x}}-Big(frac{1}{3}Big)^{x+8}>0.]

Exercise 3.

Discuss the solutions of the following inequality, as (b>0), (bneq 1) varies in (mathbb{R}): [log_{b}(2x-1)>log_bx.]

Exercise 4.

Solve the inequality [log_2x-frac{2}{log_2x}+1>0] [This exercise is solved just in the pdf below]
