Answer

$g(x)=\log_6x$

Work Step by Step

Substituting values of $x$ in the given function, $ g(x)=\log_6x $, results to \begin{array}{c|c|c} \text{If }x=1: & \text{If }x=6 & \text{If }x=36 \\\\ g(x)=y=\log_6x & g(x)=y=\log_6x & g(x)=y=\log_6x \\ y=\log_6 1 & y=\log_6 6 & y=\log_6 36 \\ y=0 & y=1 & y=\log_6 6^2 \\ && y=2\log_6 6 \\ && y=2(1) \\ && y=2 .\end{array} Tabulating the results above gives the table below. \begin{array}{c|c} \hline x & y \\\hline 1 & 0 \\\hline 6 & 1 \\\hline 36 & 2 \end{array} Connecting the points $ \left(1,0\right), \left(6,1\right), \text{ and } \left(36,2\right) $ with a curve gives the graph of $ g(x)=\log_6x $.
