We are to find the value of log(-2)

This is common logarithm to the base 10. What must be remembered here is that logarithm is not defined for zero and negative numbers. Logarithm can only be calculated for the positive numbers.

If you try find log(-2) or log of any negative number using calculator it will give you Math Error. So the answer to this question is Undefined.
