Answer

1. The graph $A$ corresponds to $\log_2 x$ 2. The graph $B$ corresponds to $\log_4 x$ 3. The graph $C$ corresponds to $\log_{10} x$

Work Step by Step

As we know that $\log_4 4=1$ and $\log_2 4=2$ As we look at the graph, we conclude the below points: 1. The point $(4,2)$ lies on the graph $A$. Here, we have $2^2 =4 \implies \log_2 4=2$ Thus, the graph $A$ corresponds to $\log_2 x$ 2. The point $(4,1)$ lies on the graph $B$. Here, we have $4^1 =4 \implies \log_4 4=1$ Thus, the graph $B$ corresponds to $\log_4 x$ 3. Likewise, the graph $C$ corresponds to $\log_{10} x$
