Answer

The logarithmic form of the equation y=20^-3/2 is \(\boxed{log_{20}(y) = -\frac{3}{2}}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The given equation is in the exponential form. To convert it to the logarithmic form, we need to use the property of logarithms that states: if a^b = c, then log_a(c) = b. In this case, a is 20, b is -3/2, and c is y.

Step 2 :Therefore, the logarithmic form of the equation will be log_20(y) = -3/2.

Step 3 :The logarithmic form of the equation y=20^-3/2 is \(\boxed{log_{20}(y) = -\frac{3}{2}}\).
