Verified Answer :

y = 10^x

for y = 1/100

1/100 = 10^x

10^-2 = 10^x ⇒ x = -2

Answer:

Option 3rd is correct

value of x is, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

If (x, 1/100) lies on the graph \(y = 10^x\)

Given the graph:

\(y = 10^x\)          ...[1]

Substitute the point  (x, 1/100) in [1] we have;

\(\frac{1}{100} = 10^x\)

We can write \(\frac{1}{100}\) as:

\(\frac{1}{100} = \frac{1}{10^2} = 10^{-2}\)

then;

\(10^{-2} = 10^x\)

On comparing both sides we have;

-2 = x

or

x = -2

Therefore, the value of x is, -2
