How do you condense log(xy^2)?

Back

log(xy^2) = log(x) + 2*log(y)

What is the change of base formula for logarithms?

Back

log_b(a) = log_k(a) / log_k(b) for any base k.

Front

What is the product property of logarithms?

Back

log_b(mn) = log_b(m) + log_b(n) for any positive m and n.

Front

What is the quotient property of logarithms?

Back

log_b(m/n) = log_b(m) - log_b(n) for any positive m and n.

Front

What is the power property of logarithms?

Back

log_b(m^p) = p * log_b(m) for any positive m and p.
