What is the value of loge(0.25) ?
-1.661
-1.386
-0.721
-0.602
Suppose we have loge(0.25) = x (variable) -->
By properties of logs: e^x = 0.25 -->
Take logs of both sides: log(e^x) = log (0.25) -->
By properties of logs again: x log e = log (0.25) -->
Now, just divide both sides by log e to get log (0.25) / log e = x; x = B, -1.386.
